What compile errors do you get?

The build system has recently been significantly overhauled.  It's twice
as big because configdata.h doesn't exist any more.  :)

This is normal if you have standard C headers.  If configure figures out
that you do and sets STDC_HEADERS, it doesn't bother to check string.h,
stdarg.h, etc. individually.  Makes configure go faster.

These on the other hand I'm not sure about.  Maybe a problem with the
compiler?  Anyway, I really need to see compiler errors, and if you can
find the relevant portions of config.log that would help a lot too.
