Again: 'C compiler cannot create executables'

[Felix Leditzky]

This problem is encountered very often I think, but I didn't find a 
solution to my case.

I was trying to compile wxPython-2.4.0.7, but during the ./configure 
step the program stopped saying that the C compiler (gcc) doesn't work 
and that it cant create executables.

Running the command gcc -v [file] with a little 'hello-world' program 
gives the following lines:

'Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-linux/3.2.3/specs

well, that's a bunch of messages and it's kinda hard for me to look through.

Any idea what gcc is trying to tell me, and how it can be solved so that 
I'm able to compile source code?

thanks, Felix
