Thanks very much for testing!  It's actually "working as intended", but
the configure report is unintentionally misleading.

The "configure" program is trying to install everything it can; by default, it
installs the Common Lisp library implementation source code.  Yes, there's no
clisp or sbcl, but maybe there's another Common Lisp implementation.

I've changed the "configure" report to be clearer; a sample is below.
