Also, the -v flag for the ld on my system is for verbose output, not
version which, I'm sure is why the ld test failed.

Hi Daniel, thanks for the quick response.

Nope, but it's complaining about the return types of curl_easy_strerror,
curl_shared_strerror and curl_multi_strerror saying the first
declaration in the header file of "unsigned char *" is different to the
declaration in strerror.c of "const unsigned char *".

So I've taken a step back. Cleaned up everything and started from
scratch. The first thing that bothers me is that I suspect it should
pick up cc or xlc without it being specified in the environment using
the CC environment variable, or am I off base ?

If it should I'm guessing I need to look closer at my environment and
not configure options, despite cc being in the path and available from
the command.(Environment issues are quite possible since I inherited
this machine and don't have a clue what's been done to it.)

The short question then is should I expect configure to find cc if it is
in the path, but without defining CC= ?
 
Thanks in advance !
