Since the files autogen.sh creates are now controlled, you only have to run autogen.sh when you modify the source files, not when you build from a clean checkout.

Avoiding operator[]
During a security review by Red Hat security team (specifically Florian Weimer), it was discovered that qpdf used std::string and std::vector's operator[], which has no bounds checking by design. Instead, using those objects' at() method is preferable since it does bounds checking. Florian has a tool that can detect all uses of these methods and report them. I have a short perl script that automatically corrects any such uses. The perl script is not intended to be general, but it could be reasonably general. The only known shortcut is that it might not work very well with some cases of nested []'s like a[b[c]] or with cases where there are line breaks inside the brackets. For qpdf's coding style, it worked on all cases reported.
To use this, obtain htcondor-analyzer, run it, and respond to the report. Here's what I did.
sudo aptitude install libclang-dev llvm llvm-dev clang
cd /tmp
git clone https://github.com/fweimer/htcondor-analyzer
# HEAD = 5fa06fc68a9b0677e9de162279185d58ba1e8477 at this writing
cd htcondor-analyzer
make
In qpdf:
/tmp/htcondor-analyzer/create-db
CC=/tmp/htcondor-analyzer/cc CXX=/tmp/htcondor-analyzer/cxx ./configure --disable-shared --disable-werror
# to remove conftest.c
\rm htcondor-analyzer.sqlite
/tmp/htcondor-analyzer/create-db
Repeat until no more errors:
/tmp/fix-at.pl is shown below.
make
/tmp/htcondor-analyzer/report | grep std:: | grep qpdf >| /tmp/r
perl /tmp/fix-at.pl /tmp/r
# move all *.new over the original file. patmv is my script. Can
# also use a for loop.
