Is anything else under there? Aside from enabling various server-side
languages and SSL, the only thing I see different between my configure
and yours is that you use --enable-thread-safety and I don't, and
I use --enable-debug and you don't. When I get a chance I'll do a
build with --enable-thread-safety and without --enable-debug and
see if it matters.

Have you tried gcc 3.x? I don't know if it matters, but that's
another difference between our builds.

I've been following the 8.0 development for months, doing CVS updates
and rebuilding almost daily, include once earlier this morning. I
don't remember seeing any "make check" failures recently.
