I am trying to install Digest MD5 on a Linux box that was just rebuilt, but when I run make test I get the error below. The first line of the output seems to reference gcc, but then it fails the test because gcc can't be found...? Am I reading this right? Or is the first reference setting options for gcc, then going to look for gcc and it can't be found? gcc is present in the path /bin/sh so I am at a loss as to why I'm getting this err msg. Any help/direction/smacks upside the head are appreciated. 
[root@]# make test
