In case anyone sees this and wants an actual answer, the problem is that
the 'sanity check' in the configure script that does a version check looks
for the -1 index of the first line of the stdout of ansible --version,
and when you run from source, instead of that line being 'ansible 1.9',
it's something like 'ansible 1.9 (devel a5ac9aafad) last updated 2015/02/27
17:11:18 (GMT -500)', and so it thinks -500 is the version number. Instead
of it looking for the last item, it should look for the 2nd (index 1). Try
this:
Look for this line in 'configure':
version_str = version_check.strip().split('\n')[0].split(' ')[-1]
and change the -1 at the end to 1 and you should be good to go.
