So, I would check your version of Erlang, and possibly upgrade to the latest. I use MacPorts.

Further, once you've upgraded Erlang from Ports, you have a bit of work to do on ./configure

Here's my rig:

I recently checked out a fresh version of CouchDB's trunk and tried to
build it.  After ./bootstrap && ./configure I get the errors:

git-bisect indicates that the failure was introduced with revision
687336 ("Merge runtimeconfig branch back into trunk").

This is OS X 10.4.11. I would appreciate any suggestions on what to try
next.  Thanks.
