Well, I've not ever had to install it myself--it has always been
standard with the Irix and linux distributions I've used for years
(Redhat, then Fedora).  Get the package I pointed you to and read the
instructions.  It will tell you if there are any unusual requirements,
but it is probably ported to your existing system with its base C
compiler.

And by the way, exactly what system/OS are you using that you are
having so much trouble with?  If it's not Linux, Free BSD, Solaris, or
some other *nix, find the nearest one to you and save yourself a lot
of trouble.
