Problem Building Elfutils (patched) Required by systemtap

[Warner, Christopher]

It looks like you might need to run an ldconfig or work on the way you
installed elfutils.

Subject: Problem Building Elfutils (patched) Required by systemtap

I'm sure this is a newbie question but I figured I'd toss it out there 
anyway.  I'm trying to build the latest systemtap snapshot I see on the 
FTP server - 20060304.  I got the elfutils, 0.119 and patched it with 
the patch provided as well.  Then compiling systemtap it goes into the 
elfutils dir and runs a Make in there - I get the following error.  I'm 
trying this as root in this example since I was having problems doing it 
as a user (not sure if that's necessary):

I had previous configured systemtap with:
./configure --with-elfutils=/root/elfutils-0.119

Any help would be appreciated.  Sorry for the newbie question but 
perhaps it reveals a problem in the configure or potentially a place to 
add something in the docs?  Or maybe I just missed something in the docs. :)

Thanks!
