">" redirects "stdout".

"stderr" gets the second file handle hence;

make 2>&1 >output.txt   ### puts both of them in the file by point
stderr at stdout, and stdout at the file.

Bread and butter - although it might be fun without the error messages.

Does look like a bug in the configure script, if you are on a roll send
them a patch to make configure fail, or the module optional, if not (and
the GNU tools for this ain't that easy) file a bug report.
