Howdy Joel!

The failures are not good.

Can you send me the complete output of the configure and make check, as well as
the config.log file?

Meanwhile, I will get the intel 10.0 C compiler and add it to my testing.

Some good news is that other users have reported getting this to work. Perhaps
you should try adding their compiler options, if they seem relevant. (But since
this is a C program that is failing, I don't see anything relevant.)

Thanks,

Ed
