Finally found out why Configure tells me that "nm didn't seem to
work right".
Configure requires the output of nm to be
	..... T _printf
while my nm returns
	..... T  _printf
(yes, two spaces instead of one). Instead of starting a new "your
nm is broken" war, the fix is trivial and easy:
Configure, line 483:
sed -n -e 's/^.* [AT] _//p' -e 's/^.* [AT] //p' <libc.tmp >libc.list
change to: 
sed -n -e 's/^.* [AT]  *_//p' -e 's/^.* [AT]  *//p' <libc.tmp >libc.list
                      ^^                     ^^
Happy hacking,
	Johan
