follow up on linker errors under GCC

[Michael Hunley]

A few people have posted, including a previous post from me, on linker 
errors from the latest version in CVS using GCC under RedHat linux (I use 8 
and GCC 3.2.2, unsure of my lib versions at the moment).  The last post 
about it I saw was about 1 week ago.  I have not seen any posts discussing 
solutions (though a solution by Wei on the AIX end might be part of it), 
only questions about it.  Is anyone working on it?  Has it been fixed?  I 
have not had the chance to retry the latest cut from CVS, let alone work on 
it.  I first noticed the problem after some "code patches" went in to 
optimize the linker for space, under Dev Studio.  I do not know if the GCC 
linker issues are related or it was just happenstance.  I plan to try 
building it again soon, but was hoping someone knew the state before I 
wasted any time on it.

thanks.
