grrr...   So, same error.   I tried running configure myself to get the 
output in the root of the mythtv folder.  I got an error on the endian 
test.   Here's the output of config.err

$ ./configure
endian test failed
If you think configure made a mistake, make sure you are using the latest
version from SVN.  If the latest version fails, report the problem to the
mythtv-dev at mythtv.org mailing list or IRC #mythtv on irc.freenode.net
Include the log file "config.err" produced by configure as this will help
solving the problem.

$ ./cat config.err
