getting a gambit.md

Problem: the ./configure command listed in the README didn't work the first time. I needed to run multiple ./configure && make commands using various flags to get the command listed in the README to work.

Command listed in the README:

./configure --enable-single-host --enable-march=native --enable-dynamic-clib

General procedure:

0. Use a fresh repo (git clone git@github.com/gambit/gambit.git gambit-N)
1. Run an initial build (using some variation of ./configure)
2. Run a follow up build using the command listed in the README.

Summary (in table form):

Section	./configure flags	1st build	2nd build
gambit-1	--enable-single-host --enable-march=native --enable-dynamic-clib	failed	N/A
gambit-2	(none)	passed	failed
gambit-3	--enable-single-host	passed	failed
gambit-4	--enable-march=native	passed	failed
gambit-5	--enable-dynamic-clib	passed	passed
gambit-6	--enable-single-host --enable-dynamic-clib	passed	passed
gambit-7	--enable-march=native --enable-dynamic-clib	passed	passed
gambit-8	--enable-march=native --enable-single-host	passed	failed

Notes which may (or may not) be important:

• I did not run make clean, though the Dockerfile does as the first step (requiring a previously ./configured working repository). Not strictly relevant here, but this was a signal that some variation of flags may yield succes.
