error encountered while trying to build speechd-up

[Sean McMahon]

Using debian sarge with speakup cvs and a 2.4.27 custom kernel. I have 
speech-dispatcher already installed and have not yet created the 
softsynth device. speakup_sftsyn is a module in my kernel. see the 
attached file speechd-up_error.log
This build of speechd-up came from cvs so I used the build.sh script to 
create the configure script.  The error comes from the configure script.
Thanks
Sean
