This seems to be it.  It is followed by a long list of lines starting with 
#define:

configure:25928: checking g-wrap-wct.h usability
configure:25945: gcc -c -g -O2   -std=gnu99   conftest.c >&5

configure:25951: $? = 1
configure: failed program was:

Upon installing libfft4-devel that hurdle was overcome, and I moved to the 
next dependency.  Sorry, I should have known to look there first.
