Subject: SW installation from source problem (probably OFF TOPIC)

Hello,
I ran into an odd problem, can't find the aswer: the C compiler (gcc)
can't make executables. This probably has nothing to do with
yelolowdog itself? Sorry to be off topic then.
Here's a transcript of my first from source installation attempt, any
clues to what I'm doing wrong would be highly appreciated.
[root@office php-4.0.0]# ./configure --with-mysql --with-apxs
--host=powerpc-yellowdog-linux
loading cache ./config.cache
checking for a BSD compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
checking whether make sets ${MAKE}... yes
checking for working aclocal... found
checking for working autoconf... found
checking for working automake... found
checking for working autoheader... found
checking for working makeinfo... missing
checking whether to enable maintainer-specific portions of Makefiles... no
checking host system type... powerpc-yellowdog-linux-gnu
checking for bison... bison -y
checking for bison version... 1.28 (ok)
checking for gcc... gcc
checking whether the C compiler (gcc ) works... no
configure: error: installation or configuration problem: C compiler
cannot create executables.
[root@office php-4.0.0]#
This failed both on my 8200/120 and 8500/150. YDL CS 1.2
"gcc-2.95.2-1i" is installed along with it's dependency "cpp"
Also "makeinfo" appears to be missing, where can I find that? Typing
"locate makeinfo" results in nothing...
