This shows that the configure script couldn't detect a working version of
vprintf(). Curl is dependent on such a function and thus you cannot compile
curl.

There are a few ways to solve this problem:

1. Get gcc and compile using that

2. Get a binary, already compiled, package and go with that

3. Correct the source code to use the mprintf.c functions instead, as they do
   contain a vprintf(). The dependence on a external vprintf() is a mistake.
