My C compiler is at:
$ ls -l /bin/cc.exe
lrwxrwxrwx 1 paul None 20 2009-12-23 16:09 /bin/cc.exe ->
/etc/alternatives/cc
From my years of experiences, "{}" is the simplest version of a
to-be-compiled C program. It is syntaxily correct. in any case, the
above DID work in 1.7-68.
I was doing a "configure" when it failed the first time:
checking for C compiler default output file name...
configure: error: in `/usr/local/mysql-5/mysql-5.1.41':
configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
See `config.log' for more details.

I discover my C compiler is broken while performing a "configure".
The compiler is fine.
$ echo "{}" >test.c
Your testcase is nonsense.
$ cc -O test.c -o test
test.c:1: error: expected identifier or ‘(’ before ‘{’ token
The compiler correctly told you so. What were you expecting? (Also, what
is 'cc'? Softlink perhaps?)
cheers,
