> What should I do to get the pow and log10 functions? 

I appears that the functions pow(3M) and log10(3M) are not in your
default C runtime library.  From the output of the configure script:

    checking for (void)sin(0.0) in default library(s)... yes

I see that the sin(3M) function is, however, in the default C runtime 
library.  This is very odd: the same library should contain all the math
functions.

Find the C library that contains the pow(3M) and log10(3M) functions via
commands like the following:

    nm -g /usr/lib/libc.* | grep pow
    nm -g /usr/lib/libm.* | grep log10

Note that your GNU C implementation might locate the C runtime libraries
someplace other than in /usr/lib.

If you can't find the functions pow(3M) and log10(3M), then you have a
serious problem and should talk to your system administrator.

If you do find the functions and they exist in, for example, the C math
library (libm.*), then do the following:

    1.  Go to the top-level source directory.

    2.  Perform steps 3 through 5 described near the end of the file
        INSTALL.

    3.  Ensure that the environment variable LIBS references the
        relevant library, e.g.,

            export LIBS=-lm

        or

            setenv LIBS -lm

        depending on your user shell.

    4.  Perform steps 6 through 9 described near the end of the file
        INSTALL.

Please let me know if this helps.
