I believe that this is a bug/pecularity of Apple's version of gcc.
Look at

  http://developer.apple.com/techpubs/macosx/ReleaseNotes/Compiler.html

for details.

Try:

  % CC="gcc -no-cpp-precomp" ./configure bla-bla

where you substitue everything else you put on the command line for
"bla-bla".  I'm not sure this will work since I don't have a real mac
to test it on, but there you are.
