This is from my sysadmin, Andrey Levochkin [andrew-at-stlport.com],
who was doing it:
Well, I did:
make clean
./configure
make
make install
make swig-py
and get a lot of errors.
After opening subversion tarball again everything went smoothly - it
means that 'make clean' is not working as it should :(
Please email him directly if you have further questions about the
process.

I seriously doubt Andrey used autogen.sh.

I don't think you have to worry about that. The first thing most
users will do is look for a configure script and try to use that.
