It means that your upstream is having issues; configure should be +x
in the orig.tar.gz.
Since it's not, you can either "sh ./configure;" or chmod +x, then
./configure in debian/rules. I'd suggest the first, because the second
will give you at least one of the warnings above.

I now know how retro SCOs OSes are. Riotous, riotous stuff. How they
had the ya-yas to declare Linux an infant OS in need of their IP is
beyond me. Upcoming features? PAM. files larger than 2 gigs. NFS over
TCP. The 80's called, they want their features back.
