So, I had to do a little research on autoconf, but I'm back for more.
I used version 2.58 and recieved the following errors/skippages. I'm
assuming a lack of fortran is the reason for the skipped gimmicks, but I
am stumped by the rest.
Mr Welliver, thank you for your help in the last email for getting me
one step further than I previously was.

Also, autoconf documentation tells me that it should be installing pike
to my bin, but it has yet to make it there. I can of course run pike
from its home directory...but where's the fun in that?
Hope this email finds all who receive it well.
