I downloaded V-7.1.0. ./configure went ok. make ran for some time and gave me the following. Not sure where to go from here. HW= AMD_64. SW= FC16. Thanks for any help.

check out some of these results they seem to point to a circular symbolic link that you will have created somewhere.
CIC1=CC=C(C2=N[C@@H](CC(OC(C)(C)C)=O)C3=NN=C(C)N3C4=C2C(C)=C(C)S4)C=C1
