I've had the same problem. Inspecting the log revealed that configure tried to
link a 32 bit binary against the libraries from /usr/X11R6/lib64 [1].
Just in case someone needs a workaround: issuing
export LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib64:/usr/lib:/usr/X11R6/lib64:/usr/X11R6/lib
before then build, helped me around that.
I'm not sure what I've made wrong with then Fedora Core 4 32bit compatibility
packages I've installed, but the build process will later complaint about
missing 32 bit libraries which can be located in /usr/lib: It's just that the
lib<name>.so link is missing. Don't know why. Fixing the links gives me a
working compiler.
