Making sure GD is installed on the system is a very sensible thing to do. The "ouch" was aimed at the suggestion that if you're on a *nix system, the course of action is to recompile php. Normally these days you'd just install the gd module (the equivalent of your windows dll) through your package manager.

But from your directory structure i presume you have some sort of *nix system. So you have to reconfigure and rebuild PHP. Ouch... first try installing the php gd module through whatever package manager your *nix distribution uses. For instance, on Ubuntu linux you'd do: sudo aptitude install php5-gd Ouch?
