Comment (by ryandesign):

 The error in the log is:
 {{{
 error: Yap requires pointers of size 4 or 8
 }}}
 but also of likely significance from the configure phase:
 {{{
 :warn:configure Configuration logfiles contain indications of -Wimplicit-
 function-declaration; check that features were not accidentally disabled:
 :msg:configure   getppid: found in yap-6/config.log
 :msg:configure   sleep: found in yap-6/config.log
 :msg:configure   fork: found in yap-6/config.log
 }}}
 yap is unfortunately a bit of a disaster. See #55370 for my failed attempt
 a couple years ago to update it to a more current and hopefully less buggy
 version.
