This is trouble with the 'RC' variable / 'windres' program. Try to see under
which name you have the windres program. If it is named
'i686-pc-mingw32-windres', for example, you need to use the option
--host=i686-pc-mingw32, so that the configuration script finds it.

You probably need to review the values of the autoconfigured variables in the
various Makefiles.
