Problems building postgresql 8.0.1 on OS X 10.3.8

Hi,
I get the following error message when trying to build postgresql:

checking for C compiler default output... configure: error: C
compiler cannot create executables

I have installed XCode which has the gcc compiler. I use the
following configure command to start the build process:

./configure --with-perl --with-python --with-tcl --without-tk
--with-openssl --without-readline --enable-debug
ANT=/library/ant/bin/ant

I have used the above combination before with no problems. What is
the issue here and how can I resolve it?

regards

Uzo

Hm, it works for me and for other people on OS X. Look into the
config.log file for more details.

Yeah, I built it on 3 different machines running 10.3.8 just yesterday.
