Yes, I found that now, too. Independent from that problem now, I think 
the configure script should check a couple more things (like which 
version of freetype2 or the gcc version), that makes the thing a whole 
lot easier.
I looked at first at the System Requirements page under 
http://web2.altmuehlnet.de/fschmid/sysreq.html and there is nothing 
about the GCC version - it's only a recommendation, but what means 
'strongly recommended'? Eather I need it, or I don't, but 'strongly 
recommended' doesn't say anything.
