If the build fails at the configure script, try to examine the output

+135, 136, 137, 139
+
+** Coverity integrity scan fixes -- Ferreira.
+
+Coverity (http://www.coverity.com/) offers source code integrity
+analysis scans. These scans often uncover bugs and security issues
+that would otherwise go unnoticed. When we first scanned the SXEmacs
+code base with the Coverity scanner we had ourselves roughly 500
+"defects". Nelson Ferreira has pretty much single-handedly fixed them
+ALL!! Well done, Nelson and thanks a million!!!
+
+** Build related fixes/updates -- Ferreira, Freundt, Horelick, Meier,
+ Youngs.
+
+Amongst the many, many, build chain updates I can also report that
+SXEmacs will now build and run on OpenIndiana. Go us!
+
+There were also fixes for: SuSe, PowerPC, MacOS, FreeBSD, NetBSD.
+
+There were also many compiler warning fixes from Nelson and
+Sebastian.
+
+** FFI tweaks/fixes -- Keheo, Youngs, Zajcev.
+
+** Bitrot removal -- Burkhardt, Youngs.
+
+Over the years things get old, obsolete, and forgotten. We've gone
+through and cleaned house. Say goodbye to aRts, GTK1, tooltalk, and a
+heap of rubbish in lib-src.
+
+*** aRts -- Burkhardt.
+*** GTK 1 -- Youngs.
+*** tooltalk / CDE -- Youngs.
+*** lib-src -- Youngs.
+
+** Whitespace cleanup -- Youngs.
+
+Every file in the repository has had all trailing and otherwise
+spurious whitespace removed/fixed. Obviously not an entirely critical
+thing, but tidy is tidy. :-)
+
+
+** Support libpng 1.5.x -- Youngs.
