I keep getting the following error on two newly set up Debian testing
boxes, as well as a Ubuntu Oneric box, when building GDC tip using GCC
4.6.1:

See `config.log' for more details.

Somehow, this error does not occur on my work box, where I run Ubuntu
10.04. I have no idea what the difference is. Below is my (very
quick-and-dirty) build script, mostly cut and pasted from the GDC wiki.
