Yep, seems to work.  Goodness that's strange.

OK.  Thanks Camm.  I don't suppose there's a way to have configure bomb
out with an informational message?  Probably rare enough not to worry
about though.

One bright spot - I tried the build without the locbfd or statsysbfd

Haven't done any real testing of it yet, but a very encouraging sign!
