build log

Tried compiling weston from git master. Used this command:

    (./autogen.sh --prefix="$WLD" && make && make install) | tee build-log.txt

build-log.txt is attached.

I heard there was a ``--disable-setuid-install`` config flag, but Darxus (on
irc) said that he thought that installing as a non-root user into your home
directory should just work (ie that it should be auto-detected, and the
chown/setuid thing should be skipped.)
