I looked there and cannot find what is wrong. :-( The file is located here: http://troy.jdmz.net/config.log >My first guess would be that something is wrong with gcc: perhaps gcc >really CAN'T create executables on this system: try doing a simple >compile of a "hello world" C program. I can compile simple and complex programs, and Samba 2.2.8a (though that has the 'Broken pipe' problem). >It's weird that configure can't report on the contents of conftest.c, >though.

I have removed everything but /usr and /usr/bin from the PATH and still get this error. Thank you for helping me progress toward a solution!
