Problem building glib downloaded today

[Jeff Evarts <jdeassoc earthlink net>]

I have downloaded the latest & greatest version of glib
via CVS.

I have downloaded and installed the latest versions of
automake, autoconf and libtool.

I run configure as specified, and get the one odd message.

The problem is that the Makefile generated is COMPLETELY
EMPTY. Am I missing something?
