Thanks for the additional help Takashi!  I've tried that as well without 
any luck - still errors out at the same place and with the same 
message.  I know that some of the paths are non-traditional, but there 
were certain guidelines that had to be met with this custom distro.  As 
a result, some of the directories had to get moved.  That shouldn't be 
adding to the problem right?  Since we're telling configure exactly 
where to locate the files...
