+Some Configuration Options
+==========================
+
+ You can give various options to the `configure' shell script. You should
+give --help command to the `configure' to see all of them. Here is listed
+few options that you might want to use. Please refer to the rest of this
+file for more generic installation instructions.
+
+`--with-gmp=PATH'
+
+ If you wish to use GMP library for arbitrary precision arithmetic
+library instead of using the MPI library included in the package, you can
+give the --with-gmp=PATH option to the `configure'. The PATH is the path
+to the GMP library in your system.
+
+`--disable-asm'
+
+ If you have trouble compiling the assembler optimized code in the
+package or does not want to use them, you can give the --disable-asm
+option to the `configure' script. This will assure that assembler
+optimized code is not compiled in.
+
+`--enable-debug'
+
+ If you would like to enable the debugging for the compiled programs
+you can give this option to the `configure'.
+
+`--disable-threads'
+
+ If you do not want to compile the programs with multi threads support
+you can give --disable-threads option. In this case all compiled programs
+will work in single thread only.
+
+`--enable-ipv6'
+
+ The `configure' will attempt to check for IPv6 support in your system.
+ However, if it fails, but you still want to compile in the IPv6 support
+ you can give --enable-ipv6 option to force the IPv6 support.
