OK, try adding

   CPP='gcc -E' CXXCPP='g++ -E'

and see if that helps.

Oh, I notice you gave these as arguments *following* the ./configure  
command; I'm not sure if that has the same effect as setting them  
*before* ./configure on the command line, which is how I'd normally do  
it. Maybe the result is the same either way.
