php 4.0.6 configure problem

hiya! I'm trying to compile php4.0.6 on a redhat 7.1 machine (gcc-2.96-85, glibc-2.2.2-10), and can't even get the configure to run successfully (Something is likely to be messed up here, because the configure script was not able to detect a simple feature on your platform.). I need to compile my own version of php, since I have to include oracle support and there is no rpm available. If you know how to solve the below problem, please reply by email, since I just can't seem to figure out what is going wrong here. thanks alot, tom. contents of debug.log: CONFIGURE: './configure' '--prefix=/usr' '--with-config-file-path=/etc' '--disable-debug' '--enable-pic' '--enable-shared' '--enable-inline-optimization' '--with-exec-dir=/usr/bin' '--with-regex=system' '--without-gd' '--with-jpeg-dir=/usr' '--with-png' '--with-zlib' '--with-gdbm' '--enable-debugger' '--enable-magic-quotes' '--enable-safe-mode' '--enable-sockets' '--enable-sysvsem' '--enable-sysvshm' '--enable-track-vars' '--enable-yp' '--enable-ftp' '--enable-wddx' '--without-mysql' '--without-oracle' '--with-oci8=/usr/ora8/m01/app/oracle/product/8.1.7' '--with-xml' '--with-apxs'
