Looks like something is broken with your C compiler. Did you install a
different C compiler perhaps?
This doesn't look to actually be an nvidia bug (or even dkms really),
but as there are a number of dupes perhaps it could use better error
handling or error messages. Setting to wishlist for now.
** Description changed:
+ [Problem]
+ DKMS fails to build the nvidia driver if the C compiler is broken.
+
+
+ DKMS make.log for nvidia-current-195.36.15 for kernel 2.6.31-20-generic (i686)
+ Wed Mar 31 08:24:29 IST 2010
+
+ The C compiler 'cc' does not appear to be able to
+ create executables. Please make sure you have
+ your Linux distribution's gcc and libc development
+ packages installed.
+
+ *** Failed CC sanity check. Bailing out! ***

+ make: *** [select_makefile] Error 1
