Sorry for being unclear about this. I meant "check out from CVS".

OK, thanks for telling me this. The reason I included the stuff below
was that the README.CVS states:

My setup includes a view non-standard installations, but I also tested
the second option (calling configure without options) and it works
fine.

Yes, I forgot that point in the instruction, thanks for the pointer.

Understood.
Thank you for the feedback on this,
