configure changes (shared libs)?

(It's a lot of fun having so many different machines around to play with!) Basically, it failed to fail for me. I took your exact configure command, changed all occurences of /u/turner to /home/cgw, and got rid of the `-mabi=n32' flag which my C compiler didn't accept. The `./configure' completed normally and the `make' is cooking along as I type this. Maybe your system is just hosed in some other way? Or maybe there's a significiant difference between our setups. You didn't say exactly what compiler version you were using. My system looks like this: sgi:xemacs-21.2$ uname -a IRIX64 sgi 6.5 07151432 IP27 sgi:xemacs-21.2$ cc -version MIPSpro Compilers: Version 7.2.1 How does that stack up to yours?
