[Gnash] Fedora Core 5 on AMD64 - Libgnashbackend.a error

[Partha Bagchi]

Hi all,

I have an HP Pavilion DV8000z loaded with FC5 x86_64. I am trying to 
compile gnash from CVS. So, I downloaded Gnash and ran
./autogen.sh
./configure --with-gui=GTK --enable-plugin 
--with-plugindir=/usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins
(if you do not enable-plugin then firefox plugin is disabled - something 
the docs do not say.)

The compiler runs for awhile (gcc- 4.1.1) and then I get the following 
error:

Making all in utilities
make[2]: Entering directory `/home/downloads/temp/gnash/utilities'

then mv -f ".deps/parser.Tpo" ".deps/parser.Po"; else rm -f

make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/downloads/temp/gnash'

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,
Partha

PS: I did make in the utilities directory which allows the compiler to 
proceed. But then one cannot install it since it complains about the 
link to libgnashbackend.a

The automake version is 1.9.6 if that is important.
