Actually, it's more useful if it completely fails to build. As I was
porting one particular app to OS/2, I spent about a day just getting
the configure script to succeed, upon which getting it to compile took
maybe five minutes, and getting it to run correctly with all
subcomponents was maybe another hour. The earlier it fails, the
better.
