[Monique Monteiro]

Here is the complete message in config.log:

gcc version 3.4.2 (mingw-special)
configure:3288: $? = 0
configure:3295: c:/MinGW/bin/gcc -V >&5
gcc.exe: `-V' option must have argument
configure:3298: $? = 1
configure:3321: checking for C compiler default output file name
configure:3348: c:/MinGW/bin/gcc    conftest.c  >&5
ld: /mingw/lib/crt2.o: No such file: No such file or directory
configure:3351: $? = 1
configure:3389: result:
configure: failed program was:
| /* confdefs.h.  */
| #define PACKAGE_NAME ""

| int
| main ()
| {

|   ;

configure:3396: error: C compiler cannot create executables
See `config.log' for more details.
