Okay. This time, I was able to make two baby steps before having to
come back for help.
autoconf followed by Setup.lhs configure produces this: (more text

Hm. Now I tried to reproduce the problem, but it didn't work! The
difference to before is that I can autoreconf, not autoconf.
Thanks for your patience. I wonder how I got this all running on my
Linux box without so much pain. Perhaps I was smoking something great
that caused amnesia :-)
