Just got done trying. Unfortunately I'm not really an automake expert, so please bear with me. Things seemed to go OK until it tried to make some zlib files. (Not sure why it is recreating this, but whatever.) It's trying to do a "make -a" in a directory called ...i386*/aout/zlib which contains no Makefile. Unfortunately I have idea why the Makefile isn't there and where it's supposed to come from. I don't see any serious looking errors in the config log prior to this point. If anyone has any ideas I'd be willing to give it a try.
