Good day,
I think I might have an issue with building gcl now that you ask!

I don't know about that. I did .configure, make, make install if that's
what you mean by "correctly built".
[lemire@lagrange gcl]$ ./configure
(output omitted)
[lemire@lagrange gcl]$ make
(.... bunch of stuff omitted...)

From that point on... I think that all your questions are pretty much out.
I've no idea what is going on. Since I'm used to building packages that
throw errors and warnings at me, I didn't pay any attention to it.
Thanks!
