+		INSTALLATION using configure script
+		-----------------------------------
+
+See the file INSTALL for basic instructions.  A short explanation for
+each non-standard configure option follows.
+
+  --disable-typeinfo-name 
+
+Some output from the library will use a class name to distinguish
+between tests.  Normally, the Run-Time Type Information system is
+used (specifically, the type_info::name() function) to generate
+the name.  Some compilers return human-readable names via this
+interface.  Other compilers do not.
+
+If your compiler does not generate a pleasing class name, specify
+this option; the names will be generated by other means.
