This looks as if the build directory was not empty. Could it be that
the directory still contained stale results from a previous invocation
of configure? If that failed, I'm not sure if configure correctly
recovers in all cases...
It's of course possible that this is the result of executing configure
again to obtain a log after the failures described before. In that
case, creating a new build directory won't help much and maybe you
already tried...
