problem installing xemacs

I have had to rebuild my macports system because I got a new hard drive.  I
am using Mac OS 10.4.11 and XCode Tools 2.5.  When I try to install xemacs,
configure fails:

checking if PIC flag -fPIC really works... yes
checking if C compiler can produce shared libraries... yes
checking for ld used by GCC...
/usr/libexec/gcc/powerpc-apple-darwin8/4.0.1/ld
checking if the linker is GNU ld... no
checking for dlerror... yes
checking for _dlerror... no

*** PANIC *** configure forgot how to build working executables!

*** This is most commonly due to an unforeseen environment, causing
*** configure to incorrectly compute the sequence of libraries to link.
*** Please examine the tail of config.log for runtime errors.
*** Pay special attention to the -l flags, and perhaps -I and -L.
*** Often adding or removing explicit options in the configure
*** invocation can work around this kind of problem.  If so, please
*** report it as a bug to xemacs-beta at xemacs.org.
***
*** Other possible causes are inability to write to the file system
*** (bogus permissions or disk full) or a misconfiguration of the dynamic
*** linker.  On Linux, check /etc/ld.conf and rerun ldconfig if
*** necessary.  On other systems, try telling configure where to find
*** the shared libraries using the --site-runtime-libraries option.
***
*** Another way to shoot yourself in the foot is to specify
*** --with-FEATURE when FEATURE is not actually installed on your
*** system.  Don't do that.
