After some digging around on the net figured out that the "error" actually meant no "c" program would compile when supplied with the same arguments as found on the error line in "config.log".
In my case it happens to be: gcc -m32 -g -O2 -L/usr/lib -I../libibverbs/include -L. conftest.c >&5 the -m32 instread of -m64 seems to be the culprit! Looking at the configure file and running /usr/bin/file on the xxx.o seems to yield 64_bit though.... Any ideas.....
