That statement is completely false.
There was no indication from ./configure that there was any impending trouble. The first and only sign of trouble was when the "make" step failed in a surprising way. > > Here we are TRYING hard to help you, and > > you seem to be yelling something.

When people announce that the bug is "closed", based on completely false assumptions, I feel I should explain why the assumptions are false. When the number of false assumptions becomes large, the explanation becomes lengthy. I also point out, again, that I am not asking anybody to "help" me. I have workarounds for this bug. Have had for years. I am just trying to help Joe User. I was slapped for pointing this out previously, but it remains true. -- Sid Boyce ...
