missing binutils, too?

Chris's suggestion of missing includes (libc-dev) is the second thing
I'd check, but I believe this error specifically points to compile
(proper) succeeds, link fails, suggesting missing ld from binutils.

I can't believe you can install a gcc rpm without it suggesting the
libc dev package and binutils.  What gives?
