Disclaimer: NO WARRANTIES !

This shouldn't be a problem - just a false positive of your AV software.

To check it: There shouldn't be a file named a.exe in the tarball.
FLTK doesn't include executables in the tarballs.

If the AV software finds a.exe while (or after) running configure, then
this is most likely because configure creates executables to test some
features of your system.

However, there is a small probability that your compiler is infected
and creates .exe files that contain virus code.  But personally I
would think that it's a false positive.

Again: NO WARRANTIES !
