This is correct; ./configure is not needed right after ./autogen.sh
That said, I'm not certain if the Virtual Machine section should
have the compiling commands. My first instinct would be to have
the download + virtualbox instructions... possibly even in chapter
1 or 2, or possibly in the Requirements section of chapter 3...
and then to direct people to the normal compiling instructions.
A proper job of this stuff would be 5-10 hours, though.
