[Bro] configure problem

[john mcnicholas]

Hi.  I'm new to bro and my first attempt to build the app (v0.9) failed - I
couldn't get by configure.  I checked the archives and another person had
the same error but it appears he solved it on his own and I couldn't tell
how.

Briefly,  I ran configure and the system can't find input file:
"aux/adtrace.Makefile.in".

//----------------
// ouput summary

$ ./configure
...
config.status: creating aux/adtrace/Makefile
config.status: error: cannot find input file: aux/adtrace/Makefile.in

//------

I got the same error on 2 different operating systems:   OS/X 10.3.5 and
SuSE Linux 9.1.  Please let me know if you need additional information.

Thanks in advance for your help.

John
