This shouldn't hurt. The error you are seeing occurs when gcc tries to
build a simple example code during the configure process and cannot
find the binary that should result. In the config.log, you will see
the code it tried to build and what the command line was. You can try
to replicate the problem by hand if needed. This will give additional
information.

Cheers,

Ted
