You should see the content of config.log in the obj directory.

ps: Waterfox's maintainer? I don't think building firefox using pgi is a
good idea.

What does config.log say? You're failing this test here:
http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/configure.in#702

Presumably your choice of compiler there doesn't understand some of
the arguments being passed to what configure expects is VC++.

It's just to experiment to see how PGI performs, see if it provides
any benefit.

Doesn't say anything useful regarding it. What's curious is that PGI
has a directory called 'Microsoft Open Tools 10' which contains the MS
compiler (cl.exe) as well as the linker etc. Could that be used
instead?
