I'm trying to recompile the source RPM from the FC3 version of cvs (http://ayo.freshrpms.net/fedora/linux/3/i386/SRPMS.updates/cvs-1.11.17-4.src.rpm), as the version shipped on RHEL/CentOS/etc has a known bug (version 1.11.2-unix "cvs watch on" doesn't work). The initial configure is failing with this obscure error: configure:2257: checking for C compiler default output file
