After the ./configure --prefix=$HOME/git, the make all gives me

Which revision are you trying to compile? Also, it's probably more
helpful to just post the result of 'make all' verbatim, rather than
snippets.

...and try to use make directly rather than configure, which isn't
maintained that well.

That's what I did, but maybe you didn't saw my mail. It works fine, because Cc 
doesn't overide gcc. So I can install. I don't know if you want to look at 
the errors or not, but if not, maybe adding some info in known issues?

I wonder whether we should hide configure somehow. If you see a Makefile
and configure and don't know the project, the natural impulse is to use
configure before make.

Indeed, the natural reflex is to make a ./configure --help to have the 
options, and use ./configure. I saw the first lines in the INSTALL file, 
describing "make prefix=" but just made like I'm used to.

Thx.
