Libssh2 people,

On stock Ubuntu 14.04 (Linux 64 bit) I get:

~/BION/Software/Package_sources/Utilities/libssh2-1.4.3> ./configure
checking whether to enable maintainer-specific portions of Makefiles...
no
checking for sed... /bin/sed
checking for a BSD-compatible

checking whether the C compiler works... no
configure: error: in

configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
See `config.log' for more details
~/BION/Software/Package_sources/Utilities/libssh2-1.4.3>

and config.log is attached. It looks as if gcc is given the -V argument,
which
gcc does not understand anymore. The latest daily snapshot (december 4)
behaves the same. Can someone tell me where to edit if there is an easy
fix, or better, post an update with the fix?
