Excellent.  I'm ready to test...

Got it.

I just updated my bitkeeper tree and have been having a hell of a time
getting it to build.  I've checked that I have automake 1.4 and
autoconf 2.13.

I run `BUILD/compile-pentium --prefix=/home/mysql` and it fails after
several minutes.  The output is large, so I've posted it here:

  http://public.yahoo.com/~jzawodn/mysql-build.log

(the good stuff is at the end, of course...)

I believe I've followed the directions properly, but let me know if it
looks like I've missed anything.

Thanks,

Jeremy
