compiling kernel on new install on sublade 100

[jsusanka]

installing the latest gentoo on a sunblade 100
Everything went okay until I got to the kernel part.

I did a emerge --ask sys-kernel/gentoo-sources

And when it starts to compile bc-1.06.95-r1 it fails.

Tells me to look in the config.log file.

I look in that file and I get the error message:

ld cannot find -lc

it has gcc as the path in front of the error message.

not sure what it is looking for here as it just says c.

any help is greatly appreciated.

Here is the line where the error occurred in config.log

usr/lib/gcc/sparc-unknown-linux-gnu/4.9.3/../../../../sparc-unknown-linux-gnu/bin/ld: cannot find -lc
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

thanks

Moved to Gentoo on SPARC so the SPARC community is more likely to see the post.
Edited original post to add this message so it sill appears in the unanswered posts search.

I started from scratch again but I still am stuck in the same place. Is there something obvious I am missing? Here is the config.log file hopefully that will provide a clue to somebody.

cat /mnt/gentoo/media/data/var/tmp/portage/portage/sys-devel/bc-1.06.95-r1/work/bc-1.06.95/config.log
This file contains any messages produced by compilers while
running configure, to aid debugging if configure makes a mistake.

It was created by bc configure 1.06.95, which was
generated by GNU Autoconf 2.59. Invocation command line was

$ ./configure --prefix=/usr --build=sparc-unknown-linux-gnu --host=sparc-unknown-linux-gnu --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --datadir=/usr/share --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var/lib --with-readline --without-libedit

cannot find -lc

do you know what it is looking for with that line.

I don't see that anywhere unless it is called something else.
