I'm struggling with building the latest setup. Here's what I get:
$ cd /usr/src/setup
$ cvs update setup
M setup/PickPackageLine.cc
M setup/PickView.cc
M setup/PickView.h
M setup/String++.cc
M setup/String++.h
M setup/localdir.cc
M setup/root.cc
cvs update: move away setup/cfgaux/.direxists; it is in the way
C setup/cfgaux/.direxists
$ # that last one looks kinda weird, but probably unrelated
$ cd setup && ./bootstrap.sh
/usr/share/aclocal/freetype2.m4:7: warning: underquoted definition of AC_CHECK_FT2
run info '(automake)Extending aclocal'
or see http://sources.redhat.com/automake/automake.html#Extending-aclocal
Autotool bootstrapping complete.
$ # again, something's weird here
$ mkdir build && cd build
$ ../setup/configure -C --disable-shared --enable-maintainer-mode CC='gcc -mno-cygwin' CXX='g++ -mno-cygwin' > configure.log 2>&1
$ # nothing untoward in the configure output
$ make > make.log 2>&1
$ tail make.log

Same errors with a fresh checkout. Any ideas? Am I doing something
wrong?

P.S. Incidentally, neither Max nor Brian (nor me :-)) are in the
CONTRIBUTORS file.
P.P.S. It might be nice to make the word "README" on the setup homepage
a link to the CVS version (where it says "For instructions on how to
build setup.exe, see the README file included in its source.").
