#20276: mysql5 install configure failure

Comment(by ryandesign@…):
"configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables" almost always
means Xcode is not installed properly, or at all. The odd bit here is that
it's failing while working on mysql5 -- which means it already
successfully installed mysql5's dependencies zlib, openssl, readline,
ncurses, and ncursesw. I suppose it's possible those dependencies were
installed some time earlier when Xcode was installed properly, then Xcode
was uninstalled, then you tried to install mysql5?
Can you please show me the output of this command on your system, which
should show us what C compilers you have:
{{{
ls -l /usr/bin/gcc*
}}}
I also noticed "/usr/local/bin" in your PATH. Although MacPorts does not
use your PATH while installing ports, /usr/local is a special location and
software will often look there anyway, which is why we recommend you keep
/usr/local empty if you want to use MacPorts. What is in your /usr/local?
