I think this is probably a library of some sort that is missing, could someone point me to what is missing on the machine? Thanks in advance.

- Redhat version? (cat /etc/redhat_version [or redhat_release I dunnow])
- gcc -v
- whereis cpp
- ls -al /lib/cpp*
- cpp --version
:p

I've not heard this problem before, but it's detecting the preprocessor wrong or something.

uh ok, and could you attach config.log? Hmmmm wasn't gcc 2.96 the fucked up compiler version?? ;).

There you are, and I m thinking that we should need to upgrade gcc then.
Thanks.

yup, upgrade :p. it's missing header files and 2.96 is considered fucked up ( http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-2.96.html ).
