      It shouldn't be trying to mkdir in the root directory.

Ok, I'll paste the xterm output here (adding some linebreaks to improve 
clarity, but otherwise unaltered. running configure with *no* parameters: 
(this is a little spammy, so I'm redirecting stdout to /dev/null, it is 
stderr that is significant anyway - ask if you want/need me to re-run with 
the output of stdout or to send the config.log file )

ok this is sort of what was expected, Ryo committed my regions patch without 
running automake, I thought this just an issue for systems without autotools, 
but....
