It sounds like the problem is that you need to
tell configure that CC is actually gcc


You can achieve this by either creating a
link from GCC to CC

ln -s /usr/bin/gcc /usr/bin/cc

(As root)

OR

export CC=gcc ../../../../rtems-ss-20021007/c/make/configure

Either of these should solve the problem
