If you don't need OpenAL or ALUT, then I suggest you configure with --disable-openal.
OpenAL was updated in 6.4.2. I thought the new version handled compatibility with different versions of the OpenAL library better (indeed that's why it was updated), but it appears not. I'm hoping Sven Panne, the author of OpenAL, will be able to shed some light.
*sigh* It looks like if the OpenAL package has been built correctly, but now the ALUT package makes some trouble. :-P I'll have a look into it at the weekend, in the meantime "--disable-alut" will probably help, disabling OpenAL itself is not needed. Sorry for all the trouble, but the OpenAL and ALUT libraries have been a moving target in the past, but things have consolidated recently. Alas, some Linux/*BSD/... distributions are still shipping very old stuff. Catching all these differences via autoconf is non-trivial. Cheers, S.
