Do this, read the README.build file. Check that you have the proper
versions of the packages. Ignore everything it tells you to do.
Then do
setup.build 2>&1 | tee /tmp/errors
If it doesn't work email me the result and I can see what is going on.
The script should set everything up properly to compile, run automake,
etc. Automake seems to really mess up badly on some machines, I don't know
why.
