I tried it with clang: $ export CC="clang -fuse-ld=bfd" $ export CXX="clang++ -fuse-ld=bfd" $ ./configure Configure ended with: checking whether we are cross compiling... configure: error: in '/srv/project/rbc/src/gcl-2.7.1': configure: error: cannot run C compiled programs. If you meant to cross compile, use '--host'. See 'config.log' for more details Here's an excerpt from config.log: configure:5086: clang -fuse-ld=bfd -o conftest conftest.c >&5 /usr/bin/ld.bfd: /tmp/conftest-a86d93.o(.text+0x51): unresolvable <F3>^O^^<FA>L<8B>^]<B5><F0>^D relocation against symbol `__isthreaded' configure:5090: $? = 0 configure:5097: ./conftest Segmentation fault (core dumped) configure:5101: $? = 139 configure:5108: error: in '/srv/project/rbc/src/gcl-2.7.1': configure:5110: error: cannot run C compiled programs. If you meant to cross compile, use '--host'. This is an amd64 host.
