These are not necessarily errors. The configure script would abort upon any 
serious errors.

This is actually correct. If the C compiler is a cross-compiler, things might 
get very wrong.

Just chacks for different utils. If they are not present, workarounds in 
afterstep is enabled, I think...

This is also correct, it means that the libraries are present, and will be 
linked by using -I and -L options to gcc. (I think, correct me if I'm wrong)

So, you should not worry about these unless you actually fail to compile 
Afterstep completely.
