The output from your configure script looked OK.

Apparently, on your system the Standard C math functions are not
par of the C runtime library.

Please try the following:

1.  Go to the top-level source-directory.

2.  Execute the command "make distclean".

3.  Set your environment variables as before.

4.  Set the environment variable LD_MATH to reference the
    library that contains the C math functions, e.g.,

        export LD_MATH=-lm

5.  Execute the configure script as before.

6.  Proceed with the rest of the build process as before.

Regards,
Steve Emmerson
