This is what I managed to figure out by reading the makefiles.

But when I launch those two commands the built fails (last prerelease)
(log abstract as an attachement).

The build is successfull if I launch the following sequence of commands:

      ./configure
      ./make
      ./configure --enable-hipe
      ./make

Ok. Here is where I get. Now I am trying to figure out how I should use.
Here is what I did:

    hipe:c(test, [o2]).

and the result is:
   ** exited: {{case_clause,undefined},
               [{hipe,o1_opts,0},
                {hipe,opt_expansions,0},
                {hipe,expand_options,1},
                {hipe,compile,3},
                {hipe,c,3},
                {erl_eval,expr,3},
                {erl_eval,exprs,4},
                {shell,eval_loop,2}]} **

   =ERROR REPORT==== 17-Sep-2001::21:35:49 ===
   Error in process <0.31.0> with exit value:
   {{case_clause,undefined},[{hipe,o1_opts,0},{hipe,opt_expansions,0},{hipe,expand_options,1},{hipe,compile,3},{hipe,c,3},{erl_eval,expr,3},{erl_eval,exprs,4},{shell,eval_loop,2}]}

Does anyone see what I am doing wrong ?
