"Chroot sftp/scp user on Mac OS X 10.4.2 (Tiger)" which involves
installing scponly (and, apparently, xcode?).
When I ran the step "./configure --enable-chrooted-binary" it could
not find gcc. So after much surfing I installed Xcode 2.5 for
Tiger... and it still could not find gcc.
So after more surfing... I added /Xcode2.5/usr/bin to path in
"~/.profile" and now I'm getting this error when I run
"./configure..."!
"C compiler cannot create executables"
Oh, heavens to Betsy, why is this so complicated? Why
doesn't Xtools install put gcc in path? What does this latest
error mean? Before I go too far down the rabbit hole, can
anybody help get to where I need to go simply? I appreciate
your much needed help, somebody! Thank you!!!!

(I'm a novice, if it isn't evident by now.)
Those instructions were written nearly four years ago, and 18 Mac OS X releases and seven Xcode releases have transpired since that time. The instructions are written for Xcode 2.4.1, which installs in /Developer (not in /Xcode2.5) and which has a completely different structure for organizing build tools; the whole point of Xcode 2.5 is to be portable to Mac OS X 10.5 and to coexist with Xcode 3.0, which is why it's installed in a folder of a different name and does not put its build tools into the $PATH by default.
If you indeed have Mac OS X 10.4 and need to follow those instructions, remove Xcode2.5 and download and install Xcode 2.4.1 instead.
