Hi!
I had that problem too.
I found out, that I didn't have all nessessary packages installed.
Unfortunately I can't remember, whitch RPM package I had to install.
It was some header/library package nessessary for compiler.
You can try to install some RPM (library/header) and then ./configure again.
If error occures again, uninstall that RPM and install another.
possible RPM's:
glibc-devel-2.1.2-9mdk.i586.rpm
glibc-2.1.2-9mdk.i586.rpm
libc-5.3.12-32mdk.i586.rpm
I try to find out the package. Maybe someone else knows it.

Subject: [newbie] compiling problem
I've been downloading some things in gzip and tar formatts. I can get them
to
install the files that are waiting to be compiled fine. the problem is,
when
i type in the command "./configure", it goes through and starts compiling or
whatever, but then it gets to a part where it says: "Checking whether the
C++
compiler (g++ -s) works... no
Configure: error: installation or configuration problem: C++ compiler cannot
create executables."
I opened up the config.log, and it said:
ld: cannot open crtbegin.o: Nosuch file or directory
configure: failed program was:
#line 1371 "configure"
#include "confdefs.h"
Thanks,
Eric Weichmann
