This is Eggdrop's GNU configure script.
It's going to run a bunch of tests to hopefully make your compile
work without much twiddling.
checking for gcc... gcc
checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
See `config.log' for more details.

no ive installed x-code dev tools which i think should have install a gcc too, but im not sure why im getting that error.
that means you have C compiler and eggdrop's configure script has found it, but for some reason it failed to produce an executable for a small test program (included in the script) - possibly due to exec/write permission issues - as it says, check config.log for more details
you didn't provide the whole error log, but I'd speculate that your make(1) utility is outdated/not GNU `make'; you need to install gmake, the GNU `make'
I get the same error. Drakx, how did you managed to fix the problem?
checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
See `config.log' for more details.
make: *** [builds/unix/unix-def.mk] Error 77
Suppose tha't totally dumb question, but where is config.log stored by the way?
Say man, I'm here accedentally - I don't even know what is that eggdrop stuff. If you do know the answer, please tell me how, or I'm almost lost in searching the clue.
