i guess that might make a difference ;)

the ones that i'm familiar with are executable scripts that try to hunt down 
all the requirements to build the project... they are generally run via 
"./configure"... i don't know how they may be used on non-*nix systems or if 
they are even used at all...

i don't know unless maybe there's something missing from your build environment 
that is required... TBH, i've never even heard of the program... i use rsync ;)
