I am experimenting the same problem with xe(la)tex and (pdf)etex
formats. This is the summary of the subprocess output from the configure
phase:
This is a summary of all `failed' messages and warnings:
`pdfetex -ini -jobname=etex -progname=etex -translate-file=cp227.tcx
*etex.ini' failed
`pdfetex -ini -jobname=pdfetex -progname=pdfetex

`xetex -ini -jobname=xetex -progname=xetex -etex xetex.ini' failed
`xetex -ini -jobname=xelatex -progname=xelatex -etex xelatex.ini' failed
and this are the detailed error messages:
