I don't think that I have ever heard of this file,  so I have added it to my 
notes.  But for the last run of configure the file is 111K  and full of 
totally incomprehensible gibberish.  Us once a year users of compile are 
going to need translators methinks.

That was for a successful run, we'll see whats there when I have a failure 
again.  Thanks for the pointer.
