I am not getting POVRay to compile, neither for the usual E5 mainboard, nor for
runing on the 61-core teraflop coprocessor. I'd like some idea if I've made one
or more boneheaded mistakes before submitting a support ticket to the admins
here. Thanks!

I can get it configured fine for running on the E5 mainboard.

module load boost/1.51.0

export CC=icc
export CFLAGS="-O3 -xhost"
export CXX="${CC}"
export CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"
export NON_REDISTRIBUTABLE_BUILD=yes

../configure COMPILED_BY="My Name <abc### [at] myutsaedu>" \
--prefix=$HOME/e5/bin \
--with-boost=$TACC_BOOST_DIR \
--without-libjpeg \
--without-libtiff \
--enable-static

But make stops at this.

Configure recognizes that I am attempting to cross-compile when I add the -mmic
flag.

export CFLAGS="-O3 -mmic"
export CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"

../configure COMPILED_BY="My Name <abc### [at] myutsaedu>" \
--host=x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu \
--prefix=$HOME/mic/bin \
--with-boost=$TACC_BOOST_DIR \
--without-libjpeg \
--without-libtiff \
--enable-static

But configure aborts with this.
