Default gcc: installation problem, cannot exec `as': No such file or directory ERROR

I'm newb gay using Slackware 10.1.0

I'm having problem installing IKE-SCAN (any version) from
http://www.nta-monitor.com/tools/ike-scan/

Once I get as far as "./configure", I get error:
C compiler cannot create executables

"Config.log" show next error:
gcc: installation problem, cannot exec `as': No such file or
directory


After reading several posts about it maybe I have problems with
packages missing and path wrong but I don't know how to fix it.


Maybe you'll try to figure it out my problem/solution with next info:

You are missing the binutils package. At least on my Slackware 9.1
/usr/bin/as is in the binutils package.

1995 when I installed Slackware for the first time I manually selected
which packages to install. One of the packages that I didn't seem to need
was something called groff which should be used for some kind of text
formatting. Failing to install that package caused me to be unable to read
man-pages. You seem to have done the same mistake as groff also was
missing from your list.

Since my first newbie installation I allways do full installs of
Slackware. Hard disk is cheap, time searching for installation mistakes is
expensive.

I'm agree but installation was inherited then I prefer to install
packages missed.

Is that possible?

What are the name of these packages? and where can I download them?

Something else, how can I check if glibc is missed?


THANKS again!

I have downloaded glibc and binutils packages and I'll try to install
them.

If I can't install successfully I will post new thread about it.

THANKS.
