Under a alphaev6-dec-osf4.0f, with gcc-3.0.3,

With a plain ./configure --prefix=...

checking for sin in -lm... yes
checking for a Python interpreter with version >= 1.5... configure: 
error: no suitable Python interpreter found

and configure stops. Shouldn't it continue, with python disabled?

-After disabling it, a sucessefull make/make install (with only the C, 
F77 and C++ bindings) make check (in the build tree) fails with

   x01.cc: In member function `void x01::plot1(int)':
   x01.cc:276: `usleep' undeclared (first use this function)

-and also at

   x17.cc: In constructor `x17::x17(int, char**)':
   x17.cc:148: `usleep' undeclared (first use this function)

  the corresponding C demos compile/work ok.

-Some fortran demos are not similar to the C demos. Besides,
  - in demo 4 the "-20 dB/ecade" message is misplaced and only the first 
page is plotted.
  - demo 8/11 don't show up the plot and says: "plot3dc: Y array must be 
strictly increasing, aborting operation"

-The x20 c++ demo fails with "No such file - aborting"; after copying 
lena.pgm to the c++ examples dir it workedl)

-The x21 c++ demos fails with "Floating point exception"; adding -mieee 
to the gcc command line solves the problem. The -mieee gcc option is OS 
dependent, and is set in sysloc.in (I think)

Sorry I can't give more help now,
