Thanks.

The file that you sent me was the file "config.log" -- which is created
directly by the configure script -- rather than the file "configure.log"
-- which is created by redirecting the standard output and standard
error of the configure script when you execute it.

Please send me the file "configure.log". Please ensure that it contains
the standard error of the configure script. The mechanism for doing this
depends on your user-shell, e.g.,

    Standard shell (e.g., sh, ksh, bash):

        ... ./configure ... >configure.log 2>&1

    csh-like shell (e.g., csh, tcsh):

        ./configure ... >&!configure.log

where "..." denotes optional stuff.

The "configure.log" file is also described near the end of the file
INSTALL.html.
