My initial problem does only occur when I start the build not in the project tree(what I usually do). exmample: <project-root>/build_static and call from there ../configure When the project is configured directly in <project-root> the problem disappeared. This could be a hint for users of the tar-ball. However I found another problem with 4.5 the "headitem" is an unknown command. But that is really another problem, I will simply avoid the command.
