Thanks for the quick reply!  Indeed, updating CPPFLAGS fixes the
configure & include errors and the compilation goes on a bit before it
terminates with other errors.

Those are presumably the inconsistency with respect to Dolfin 1.3.  As I
understand it, a patch is already being worked on, so I'll just wait a
bit.  Thanks to you and those working on fem-fenics!

Yours,
Daniel
