[linux] You don't have an ELF gcc. I will use dld if possible. If you are using a version of DLD earlier than 3.2.6, or don't have it at all, you should probably upgrade. If you are forced to use 3.2.4, you should uncomment a couple of lines in hints/linux.sh and restart Configure so that shared libraries will be disallowed. Disabling ndbm. This will generate a Whoa There message in Configure. Read hints/linux.sh for further information. Operating system name? [linux] Operating system version? [4.8.0-1-amd64] Installation prefix to use?

You seem to have a working gcc, though. *** However, any setting of the C compiler flags (e.g. for thread support) *** will be lost.

You need to find a working C compiler. Either (purchase and) install the C compiler supplied by your OS vendor, or for a free C compiler try http://gcc.gnu.org/ I cannot continue any further, aborting.
