21.5.8 Configure Error

Hi all, Using Linux Slack 8.0, kernel 2.4.17, gcc 2.95.3, while doing ./configure in xemacs 21.5.8 I get: ... checking if the linker is GNU ld... yes Defining HAVE_SHLIB Appending "src" to $INSTALL_ARCH_DEP_SUBDIR checking for dlerror... no checking for _dlerror... no *** PANIC *** The C compiler can no longer build working executables. *** PANIC *** Please examine the tail of config.log for runtime errors. *** PANIC *** The most likely reason for this problem is that configure *** PANIC *** links with shared libraries, but those libraries cannot be *** PANIC *** found at run time. *** PANIC *** *** PANIC *** On a Linux system, edit /etc/ld.so.conf and re-run ldconfig. *** PANIC *** On other systems, try telling configure where to find the *** PANIC *** shared libraries using the --site-runtime-libraries option *** PANIC *** *** PANIC *** Another way to shoot yourself in the foot is to specify *** PANIC *** --with-FEATURE when FEATURE is not actually installed *** PANIC *** on your system. Don't do that.
