Okay, I did. I made a config.cache via "configure -C", and I ran autogen.sh
with the option --cache-file=config.cache. The result was an error message:

  configure: loading cache config.cache
  configure: error: `CC' was not set in the previous run
  configure: error: `CPP' was not set in the previous run
  configure: error: `host_alias' was not set in the previous run
  configure: error: `target_alias' was not set in the previous run
  configure: error: changes in the environment can compromise the build
  configure: error: run `make distclean' and/or `rm config.cache' and start over

What's wrong this time?

Removing configure.ac, l. 162-164 as a workaround lead me to:

"autogen.sh --build-w32 --without-gpgsm" worked finally.

The error message of "make" has changed now... at least it doesn't seem to try
compiling Assuan any more. I get:

  In file included from conversion.c:31:

What's wrong here?
