Are you building on some x86_64 linux?

In that case it's deemed to fail since linux will try to build gnumach
is 64bit mode. You need to cross-compile: install a 32bit version of
mig, and use this for configure:

CPP='gcc -m32 -E -x c -undef -ansi' CC='gcc -m32' LD='ld -melf_i386' 
./configure --host=i686-unknown-linux-gnu

Of course configure could be made to do this by itself, but the 32bit
mig installation is still mandatory.
