Re: Permission denied to invoking the compiler

True. I should have noticed the options. I was able build it now.

However, only static libraries were generated, that's not what I need. I checked configure and did not find options talking explicitly about static and dynamic libraries. Perhaps they are "disguised" ?

 The configure script is probably expecting a file, not a directory, as
 the argument to the `--with-build-cc` option.

sure - "INSTALL" lists separate options for each feature that would be
used in makefile variables, e.g., CC, CFLAGS, CPP, CPPFLAGS, LDFLAGS
and LIBS:

    --with-build-cc=XXX
    --with-build-cflags=XXX
    --with-build-cpp=XXX
    --with-build-cppflags=XXX
    --with-build-ldflags=XXX
    --with-build-libs=XXX
