I find the following error in the config.log file you provided:

configure:4511: /usr/bin/gcc ’-O3′   conftest.c  >&5
clang: error: no such file or directory: '’-O3′'

This indicates to me that your compiler does not like the -O3 flag you are 
specifying.  I would remove the CFLAG definition you are setting and try again 
to see if that eliminates the issue.

Please let me know if this does not fix the issue,
