The error message could hardly be any clearer. There is something
fundamentally wrong with the gcc installation on your system. A
compiler that doesn't compile is rather useless, so it's hardly
surprising that your attempts to configure and compile BIND
fail. Check your search path and gcc installation. Maybe there's
another gcc program or script that configure is running instead of the
GNU C compiler? Or maybe you just installed the gcc program which is
only a front-end to the actual compiler that controls all phases of
compilation: preprocessing, compiling, running the assembler and
linker, etc. Try compiling a simple C program -- "main() { exit(0); }"
-- with gcc and watch what happens. Use the -v argument to gcc to
make it show what it does when running the compilation.
