Windup!
This really irritates me (have I mentioned this before? Never mind):
A test compilation with your Makefile configuration failed. This is most
likely because your C compiler is not ANSI. Apache requires an ANSI C
Compiler, such as gcc. The above error message from your compiler will
also
provide a clue.
Aborting!
What a pity there is no "above error message", eh?
Cheers,
Ben.

Users often report only this standard message. Needless to
say that it does not help. IMO the failed command should be
displayed including the error messages it produced. That
would ease tracking down software configuration failures.

I fixed this already in CVS. Try it again with the current code.
