The log is full of these errors.
./config.log:/bin/bash: top_srcdir: command not found
./config.log:/bin/bash: top_srcdir: command not found
./config.log:/bin/bash: top_srcdir: command not found
Now, I've been looking through the script but I can't seem to be able to
figure out how that blasted $(top_srcdir) gets its value. Being quite
new at this, I feel a bit lost.
YES! YES! YES!
Now I found it!!! The problem seems to be COLORGCC.
It looks like configure (which uses gcc to do it's tests) can't cope
with colorgcc (which is a gcc wrapper) or colorgcc is screwing up.
Cheers,
Cristian
