To determine if your compiler works, configure tries to compile this program:

#line 888 "configure"
#include "confdefs.h"

main(){return(0);}

At this point of configure, confdefs.h is an empty file. The commands it 
uses to compile this simple program is:

${CC-cc} -c $CFLAGS $CPPFLAGS conftest.$ac_ext
${CC-cc} -o conftest${ac_exeext} $CFLAGS $CPPFLAGS $LDFLAGS 
conftest.$ac_ext $LIBS

Errors of these commands go to config.log .. if you can't find anything 
there, try typing these commands by hand, replacing ${CC-cc} with gcc if 
  $CC is not in your environment.
