  I just finished downloading DrScheme from CVS, and am getting the
following error when I try to compile it by running "make" after 
running "../src/configure --prefix=/usr/local/plt --enable-dynlib"

$ make
make mz
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/jeffs/plt/build'
cd mzscheme; make
make[2]: Entering directory `/home/jeffs/plt/build/mzscheme'

Configure didn't report any errors.  Can someone help me? Thanks.
