I now did that, too.  First thing: I find only one reference to
  "conftest.cc: No such file"
and while there are numerous such with conftest.c, reasons for failure
are usually:
- full disk
- no write permission in the build tree
- issuing more than one configure at the same time in the same build
  tree
- buggy configure script and/or shell cause shell hiccups

Don't know whether any of these pertain to your case, though.

Ralf
