fyi... i traced this to an uninstalled RPM:  xorg-x11-xbitmaps-1.0.1-4.1.i386.rpm
Once i installed this, then make proceeded to completion.  Guess configure can't check
absolutely everything.

cheers,

after download of xemacs 21.4.21 source, un-tarred the .gz, ran configure (it completed w/o errors), 
then ran make and got:

--------- last of the make output ----------

obviously the issue is X11/bitmaps/gray is missing.  Shouldn't configure have reported some missing dependency or something?

My system is a Fedora Core release 6 (Zod).
