First, it looks like grip is using a rather old version of the script
called 'missing'.  It should use a newer one (automake --force-missing
can install one).

Next, please read
<http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/html_node/Present-But-Cannot-Be-Compiled.html>
then look at the config.log snippet corresponding to the above output,
then report the data (the full compiler error) to the maintainer of
the grip package, so they can adjust their configure.ac script.

Also, please tell them to enter the bug reporting address of their
package as third argument to AC_INIT (that way the above warning
will direct users to their list right away).

Thanks,
Ralf
