autoconf problem

Hi folks,

I am trying to install the dxr3 driver on a home computer with a Hollywood RealMagic card. The machine is a 800 MHZ Celeron with Debian Etch on it. I have the 2.6.18-6 kernel.

I attempted to install the development tools to compile the module but I suspect I am missing something. When I do "./configure" in the top level is complains with the following messages.

checking for C compiler default output file name...
configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
See `config.log' for more details.

I think this is the relevant portion, but the whole thing is attached.

checking for gcc... gccconfigure:2130: gcc -V >&5
gcc: '-V' option must have argument
configure:2133: $? = 1
configure:2156: checking for C compiler default output file name
configure:2183: gcc    conftest.c  >&5
/usr/bin/ld: crt1.o: No such file: No such file or directory
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

I figure that I am missing some portion of the development system, but it is not obvious to me which. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

P.S. I apologize if this is the typical noob question that gets asked 20 times a day. I really did look at the website FAQ and the e-mail archives for this one and did not see it.
[config.log]

This file contains any messages produced by compilers while
running configure, to aid debugging if configure makes a mistake.

It was created by EM8300 configure 0.17.1-rc1, which was
generated by GNU Autoconf 2.61.  Invocation command line was

  $ ./configure
