This is not the right list for this question but....

When you get this type of error, you need to really examine the config.log.
It contains the error message from whatever configure tried to do.  In this
case, we see:

configure:1840: gcc    conftest.c  >&5
/usr/bin/ld: crt1.o: No such file: No such file or directory

So my guess is you are missing some part of the development environment.
Until you can compile and link a hello world program, you won't get past
this point.
