Details:

I downloaded the source for grep 2.5.3 from
http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/grep/grep-2.5.3.tar.bz2 .

I configured the source using

nohup ./configure --prefix=/home/kkusuman/software/myroot 2>&1 >
configure.log &

I tried to compile the source using

nohup make 2>&1 > make.log &

The compilation stops with the following errors

Making all in src
