Response to: Addendum -- /usr/local/bin
Actually , this addendum was not meant to address your compile issue, so if you have a /usr/local/bin directory, you're all set as far as that's concerned. Have you tried re-installing the most recent Dev Tools? --Chris

  Have you tried re-installing the most recent Dev Tools?
  
  All I've installed is the Dev Tools that came on the CD that came with my G4.

  I am also still having problems.
  
  (1) When I try ./configure from the streamripper directory I get: loading site script /usr/local/etc/config.site
  loading cache ./config.cache
  checking for gcc... /usr/bin/gcc --traditional-cpp
  checking whether the C compiler (/usr/bin/gcc --traditional-cpp ) works... no
  configure: error: installation or configuration problem: C compiler cannot create executables.
  
  (2) /usr/local/bin exists as a directory (with many entires) with is owned by root and group wheel.
  
  (3) I have reinstalled developer tools from the CD ver 10.1 September 2001. My system version is 10.1.3
  
  What do I try next?
  
  What exactly does the error message mean?
