I installed 2.0.6 because I read this when I was building MySQL:

http://www.tcx.se/Manual_chapter/manual_Installing.html#Linux-RedHat51

I'll probably upgrade to 2.0.7-19 at some point soon.

The filesystem has tons of space.

I imagine too that the cd is happening in the wrong dir, but make
tells me we're in glib when it happens. I suppose libtool is doing
something I'm not aware of (haven't looked).

But why me and not every other person who downloaded and tried to
install 1.0.[56]?

OK, thanks Scott, I'll take a look. There must still be something
weird going on here...
