this is a very simple question, but i have been unable to answer it myself
through the docs, htdig site or searching usenet ...

trying to compile htdig, i get an error stating "configure: error:
installation or configuration problem: C++ compiler cannot create
executables." the configure script seems to find gcc and c++ just fine,
though (see short compile transcript below).

i tried installing libstdc++ to see if that fixed anything, but as of yet
it hasn't. (libstdc++ installed itself in /usr/loca/bin and so on, but my
gcc lives at /usr/bin/gcc -- don't know if this means libstd++ is in all
the wrong places [because of the "/local"] and i need to re-install, or
what ... ).

any clues greatly appreciated ... here's the configure transcript.

[root@castro /etc/htdig-3.1.1]# ./configure
