Prerequisites
-------------
Using libcpuid requires no dependencies on any of the supported OSes.
Building it requires the aforementioned libtool and autotools commands
to be available, which is a matter of installing a few common packages
with related names (e.g. automake, autoconf, libtool).
It also requires a POSIX-compatible shell. On NetBSD, you may need
to install one (credits to @brucelilly):
1. Install a POSIX-compatible shell such as ksh93
(pkg_add ast-ksh || pkgin in ast-ksh)
2. export CONFIG_SHELL=/usr/pkg/bin/ksh93 (substitute the
correct path if required)
3. Follow the regular Linux instructions
