There then follows a long error from the line which failed (the exit code 
is 77), but it looks to me like the all the "not found" and the "checking 
whether the C compiler works... no" are the real error here. I have gcc, 
build-essential and all the versions of llvm from the aptitude installed. 
Nettle installed fine before this.

I assume I'm doing/not doing/missing something very dumb?

Is the problem that I need to somehow install llvm-3.3?
