As I said in the other thread, *why* are you assigning march, mfpmath,
etc.?  You are causing your own problem, because you are giving bad
input.

./configure --prefix=/usr --with-bindings=perl,python --enable-proc-opts

That's *it*.  Nothing more.  Please do not set processor options.  You
are doing it wrong.  Configure is smart.  Please, please let it do the
work.
