[SLUG] configure problem

Hello Sluggers,

Can anyone tell me why this has failed? Other than the ltconfig error?
I do have libtool installed. Is it maybe a 64 bit problem?

ltconfig: you must specify a host type if you use `--no-verify'
Try `ltconfig --help' for more information.
configure: error: libtool configure failed

--------------------------------------------------------
Is the libtool configure failure because of the 64 bit OS? Is there a ltconfig
file? or is that a part of the compile process.

Someone on another list told me to pass the -m32 option for gcc to make it
compile in 32 bit mode. Tried that also but I get an unknown option.
Maybe my syntax at the CLI is wrong.

Anyway, any help would be appreciated.
