It would be a lot easier to try typing "make" first, what Josh is doing is
wrong, he is using gcc without any command line options, using 'make' will
read the Makefile and get its path variables/compile options and from there.
Of course reading about 'ld' is a good idea, but will not help him very
much in this case.
Futher more it would seem he is missing a file called glibconfig.h, which
might be created by a configure script, so therefor that script was not run
before he started to compile or, he does not have the correct libs to
compile, namely no GLIBC or libc6.
Having not this archive here on my system makes it difficult to realy give
an accurate answer.
