your timestamps are messed up -- autotools should not be automatically 
regenerated.  any errors after this point are irrelevant.

the best way to find out which timestamps are messed up:
rm -rf fontconfig-2.10.0
tar xf fontconfig-2.10.0.tar.bz2
cd fontconfig-2.10.0
./configure <your random flags>
make -d >& log

then look at the log file to see why it thinks it needs to regenerate the 
autotools.  could be your clock is messed up, or you have an old kernel or 
broken filesystem, or something else.
