Setup: fedora t3 updated to 10/28 (athlon-tbird (1.3gh) I remember seeing some mention of emacs problems awhile ago here. Trying to compile emacs from cvs sources fails with these error messages: [root@exp emacs]# ./configure checking build system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu checking host system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu checking for gcc... gcc checking for C compiler default output... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables See `config.log' for more details. Does this ring a bell with anyone? Anyone here on emacs group know what might be causing above?
