Hi Nelson,

This failure is benign:

/uufs/inscc.utah.edu/common/home/mthnhb/alpha/local/share/config.site

The other one is surprising:

libtoolize said its libtool.m4 is in
`/uufs/inscc.utah.edu/common/home/mthnhb/alpha/local/share/aclocal/libtool.m4',
but test -f disagrees.  I don't know what's to be understood.  I'd say
your libtool installation is broken.  ?
