[ADMB Users] old compilation problem, new version (10.1)

[Evan Cooch]

Alas, no look. Took latest admb-10.1.zip archive, extracted it, and 
tried ./configure with the 'native' (non-tweaked) scripts, and 
config.log still shows the same FAIL(s) -- for example:

conftest.cpp:9:28: error: ac_nonexistent.h: No such file or directory
configure:3169: $? = 1
configure: failed program was:
| /* confdefs.h */
| #define PACKAGE_NAME "ADMB"
| #define PACKAGE_TARNAME "admb"
| #define PACKAGE_VERSION "10.0"
| #define PACKAGE_STRING "ADMB 10.0"
| #define PACKAGE_BUGREPORT "users at admb-project.org"
| #define PACKAGE_URL ""
| /* end confdefs.h.  */
| #include <ac_nonexistent.h>
configure:3194: result: g++ -E
