I see. Well, it's a matter of how you view things, isn't it? You could see the history of this report as someone doing his utmost to correspond about a problem he doesn't see himself. Or you could see it as the report having been handled by someone who didn't have the matching hardware and asked for information that was already in the message.

I have no idea whether I saw his message at the time, nor what kind of reply I sent if I did see it. But I downloaded parrot-0.9.0 to test, and when after untarring I perl Configure.pl, I get the following result:

----- Start of include: -----
Parrot Version 0.9.0 Configure 2.0

Hello, I'm Configure. My job is to poke and prod your system to figure out
how to build Parrot. The process is completely automated, unless you passed in the `--ask' flag on the command line, in which case I'll prompt you for a few
pieces of info.

Since you're running this program, you obviously have Perl 5--I'll be pulling
some defaults from its configuration.

init::manifest - Check MANIFEST.....................................done. init::defaults - Set Configure's default values.....................done. init::install - Set up installation paths..........................done. init::hints - Load platform and local hints files................done. init::headers - Find header files distributed with Parrot..........done. inter::progs - Determine what C compiler and linker to use...Compilation failed with 'cc'
----- End of include. -----

And, yes, that means it failed at that time. And no, I do not have more output about other failures, for if I had had more output it would be there: This is not part of the result, it's all of it. The only thing I left out is that my shell will once again print a command prompt once this has finished.

I haven't checked whether the documentation still speaks about a myconfig, but in any case, I don't see it being created. Lacking such feedback, I instead return to you the revealing results of using
perl Configure.pl --verbose-step=inter::progs

Same notes as before.

I hope it's of any help.
