Just to let the list know, I changed as - ./configure 
--as=/usr/local/bin/as. I still had the exact same error oddly enough.

I then had to install gcc46; and the error changed.

I then had to update the configure script to comment out the v4l 
videodev headers (weird). Bingo! I had success.

So, it begs the question did the as option change things? Or does gcc46 
imply the use of it anyway?

I'll have to try again without the option to see for sure, but for now I 
have another project that I need to keep the status quo for.
