Is the error reported by gcc visible?  Run buildout in verbose mode by
running 'bin/buildout -v' to get more output.  A more complete gcc
error might give you a hint about a library that you are missing on
your system.

That said, you can try adding this to your buildout section:

find-links =
     http://ftp.schooltool.org/schooltool/eggs/


For an example, look at the Installation paragraph here:
