It appears that the variable `CC' was set to the empty string when you
executed the `configure' script.  Check your environment variables and
also the file `CUSTOMIZE' and remove any such definition, then do the
following:

    1.  Remove the file `config.cache'.

    2.  Re-execute the `configure' script.

Please let me know if this helps.
