If you are building from the CVS, which you should be given what I know
you want to do :-), then you must have gperf installed as oct-gperf.h is

install it.

Given that John has announced 2.9.10 in a few days, perhaps you're
better off just waiting a few days and using 2.9.10 when it is released..
