Note you *definitely* want 8.2.3 not 8.2.2.

That's really strange. For reference, I get this:
configure:2209: checking for C compiler default output file name
configure:2212: gcc conftest.c >&5
configure:2215: $? = 0
configure:2261: result: a.out
I thought it might be coming from your --with-libs switch somehow,
but when I add that to my configure command it does not change this
output at all. Is it possible you've got environment variables
(like CFLAGS) that configure might be picking up?
