Could you find the command (run by setup.py) that caused this gcc
error? i.e. somewhere near the end of the output from 'python setup.py
build' (I'm hoping to see which part of Biopython is causing the
problem)

What version of python do you have installed?

What version of gcc do you have installed?

Do you have flex installed?

Have you been able to install any other python modules from source?
(e.g. some of the recommended packages or dependencies like Numeric?)
