no innodb support in mysql 5.0 port

[lenny at edpausa.com]

compiled with default options ( not setting WITHOUT_INNODB ), but when I
start the server, I can't create or convert any tables to InnoDB format.
I tried various my.cf files ( including my-innodb-heavy-4G.cnf and without
any cnf files,

show engine innodb status;
ERROR 1235 (42000): Cannot call SHOW INNODB STATUS because skip-innodb is
defined


show engines;

| InnoDB     | DISABLED | Supports transactions, row-level locking, and
foreign keys



How do I get InnoDB working ? please help !!
