You were right, I had tried to install gcc in my machine but due to
some problems (the libc.2) it had failed. I hadn't removed the
executables from the path and it was picking up these executables,
when I removed it, the default HP ones were picked up and it went
fine. However in one of my machines I got an error

cannot determine argument types for accept when I rane configure.

So I compiled in another machine and installed it.

Thanx
