Umm, never mind. I had to let it run all the way through a first pass 
failure sequence. Once that happened, the config.mak file was created. 
The second pass builds okay at least on one of the systems. The other 
two systems (one is a PI) are a bit slower so will take some time to build.

Sorry for the noise,
