The README and website states a "sane GNU toolchain" as a prerequisite
to build GARNOME. The 'grep' used above obviously is not GNU grep.

This seems to be one of the cases, where the GNU grep actually is
necessary. You probably could work around this one, though. Most 'grep'
usage should be save even for non GNU grep...

This sounds way more serious. For some reason configure does not like
your compiler.
