I'll have to review the script, that doesn't look quite right to me.

No.

Ok.

There's not much I can say other than you'll have to file a bug and attach
your log (just use the original source build) and I'll review it when I
have a chance. If I can find a bug I'll fix it, or I'll mark it invalid
and identify the problem.

If you post back with a link to a configure log from this set of options
then perhaps somebody else might also be able to take a look before I can
get to it.
