Hello
Just trying to install Curl in my home directory on a Linux ISP, for use of
some PHP scripts I have that require it.

I unzipped the files and I'm following these steps to install:

./configure --prefix=$HOME
(this appears to go ahead fine)

make
(this dies with errors)

make install
(this dies with more errors)

Here is the output from "make" at the point where it appears to go wrong:

make[2]: Entering directory `/home/salo/temp/curl-7.10/lib'
source='file.c' object='file.lo' libtool=yes \
depfile='.deps/file.Plo' tmpdepfile='.deps/file.TPlo' \
depmode=gcc /bin/sh ../depcomp \
/bin/sh ../libtool --mode=compile

make[2]: *** [file.lo] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/salo/temp/curl-7.10/lib'
make[1]: *** [all] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/salo/temp/curl-7.10/lib'
make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1

Script stops here.

Why does this look like a syntax error? I haven't altered any files.
