I solved the "optout.h:49: #error You must complete the following 
DISTRIBUTION_MESSAGE macro " problem thanks to Micha's post.  Now I'm 
running into all of these different sytax errors during make.  The 
configure process went fine, no probs.  I'm not a programmer, so these 
error codes mean little.  any help would be appreciated.
