this is if you don't get "afterstep" binary after compilation.

rh9.0 as regular very unprivileged user

if you don't get "afterstep" binary after compilation then try to redirect
outputs and see what's your problem. i bet it's missing libraries or it's
-devel packages with header files.
for bash it would look like:
./configure --prefix=whatever --anything-else >/dev/null 2>c
make >/dev/null 2>m
make install >/dev/null 2>i
and investigate files in order (c,m,i) for first error like message
like missing executables (not critical for fltk-config in 1.99
afterstep-stable cvs)
or missing header files, macro/function definitions
etc.
last but not least it might be missing -ldl or some other libraries under
some conditions misguessed for AS 1.8.x and rh8.1 like static build
or anything else ;)
