building cross-compiler for m68hc11/m68hc12

[Mihai Daniel OPREA]

gcc-4.6.1 was already present as part of the Ubuntu instalation.
I have tried installing build-essentials, cleaning and rebuilding and I have also tried build-dep gcc.
Nothing changed, I get the same:
...
 exec: 79: : Permission denied
 configure:2591: $? = 1
 configure: failed program was:
 | /* confdefs.h.  */
...

Do you have a compiler installed?
At the very least, apt-get install build-essentials
Although I think you will get better served with
apt-get build-dep gcc
