Great advice! Okay, success in building v5.1.1 release with those two
flags; but no luck with building latest git (@f60f234) *without* those
flags. So, whatever fix you pushed hasn’t fixed all of the issues
*yet*.

Here’s the stdout from building @f60f234: https://gist.github.com/962027

(FYI, I’m trying to get it also building under Homebrew, where it
currently fails. That isn’t y’all’s problems, but here’s the GitHub
issue anyway: http://github.com/mxcl/homebrew/issues/5408)
