Please know I have utmost respect and appreciation for everyone working on
Fink. I am very grateful for this project. The gcc (which is the one from
Apple) says -V requires an argument, but in the configure script there was
none provided, so I got errors every time it was called. It seemed to me
to be just a typo.

This is hopefully good news. I'll give it a go ASAP. I feel it's
appropriate to repeat that I started from a clean Apple Xcode 4.2.1 install
in the first place. So, I'm not optimistic that repeating
the exercise will make any difference. Thanks again for your help.
Respectfully,
Ian Boardman, Ph.D.
