I guess we'll have to look at the `config.log' of `gnome-libs'.  For
some reason, `configure' thinks that:

	1) You don't have `vsnprintf'
	2) You don't have `scandir'
	3) You don't have a `dirent.h'

From the looks of it, all these decisions are wrong.  (Did you configure
on a SunOS m/c and try to build on a Linux m/c or something like that).
