I gave you several suggestions last night in IRC, but you didn't seem to
follow up on them.

We really can't help you unless you post the relevant section of
config.log, detailing the error.  Otherwise, we're guessing as much as

AFAIK, there have been no changes relating to OGL in quite some time.
