miniupnpc may be used for UPnP port mapping. It can be downloaded from
http://miniupnp.tuxfamily.org/files/. UPnP support is compiled in and
turned off by default. Set USE_UPNP to a different value to control this:
USE_UPNP= No UPnP support - miniupnp not required
USE_UPNP=0 (the default) UPnP support turned off by default at runtime
USE_UPNP=1 UPnP support turned on by default at runtime

software must be free open source

Take the following steps to build (no UPnP support):
cd ${BITCOIN_DIR}/src
sed -i 's/<db_cxx.h>/<db4.8\/db_cxx.h>/' *.h # path fix
sed -i 's/-Bstatic/-Bdynamic/' makefile.unix # dynamic linking
sed -i 's/^USE_UPNP:=0$/USE_UPNP:=/' makefile.unix # disable UPnP
make -f makefile.unix

Notes
-----
The release is built with GCC and then "strip bitcoin" to strip the debug
The release is built with GCC and then "strip bitcoind" to strip the debug
symbols, which reduces the executable size by about 90%.
