At a guess, you have not done a "cvs update -d" recently so the
configure script is failing to find various required files from the
acsupport subdirectory. That directory was added very recently.

Also, make sure that you read the README.host file carefully. That
configure invocation should read something like:

  <path>/configure --prefix=/usr/local/ecos --with-tcl=/usr \
                   --with-tcl-version=8.3

and in fact --with-tcl and --with-tcl-version should not be necessary
on a normal Red Hat 7.3 installation because the default installation
of Tcl is sensible. Also --prefix=<path> is optional, it will default
to installing in /usr/local
