 Do you have boost iostreams installed? If yes then it seems like problem with ioboost libraries detection on 64b system.
We had this issue in the last release and it should be fixed in the CVS now.

You can either try current CVS version or I can upload patch for iostream detection script.

In both cases you need to generate a new configure script and run it with additional parameter --with-boost-libdir=PATH_TO_YOUR_BOOST_LIB (usually /lib64 or /usr/lib64)
Let me know which solution fits better for your situation.

 I had this same problem (OpenSuSE 10.3 64-bit). I followed the instructions suggested by the previous note and was able to then successfully run the configure script. However, when I run make I get the following error (second run through of make to get rid of all the messages from the parts that did work):

Any suggestions? Let me know if you need more information.

 I can't reproduce this behavior...
Have you tried to run configure on the fresh checked out sources?
 
If you have the same problem even on the fresh current CVS checkout, upload generated Makefile.flags, Makefile, config.log and config.status files.

I am not able to reproduce.

Feel free to reopen if you have the same problem with current sources
