 I ran Repair Permissions on the boot HD.

 However,

 {{{
 CPATH=. /usr/bin/gcc -v -nostdinc -c cpath_test.c
 }}}

 still fails.

 Note when I do a ls -l on the enclosing directory for cpath I get

 {{{
 drwxr-xr-x  6 root  admin    204 Aug 26 12:52 cpath
 }}}

 Thus, no surprise why the .o file can't be written.
