Hello, Jim!

IANAE, but I'm pretty sure that the last several lines of
output of the failed "make" command, and perhaps giving
the command that caused the failure, in addition to
your config file, would be Most Helpful(TM).

Also, have you been received the error more than once,
and, if so, in the same place in the build, or at different
stages?
