Noel, make clean as well as make distclean has been done prior to seeking avice from this list.
I'm not using lode. Build environment is a clean macOS environment without any third party software 
in path. There are only four additional packages installed in path: autoconf 2.69, automake 1.16, 
gettext 0.19.8, make 4.2.1
Build worked with LO 6.1.1 and has been broken since hunspell has moved to 1.6.2.
Christian, please find config.log attached.
