Read; 'man ld' or for a full days reading; 'info -f ld'
However what you are doing is trying to compile a file without any options
at all, simply use the cammand 'make' that will make the whole lot in one go
and will use the variables which are defined in the Makefile.
All you need to is check that the LD variable is correct in the Makefile and
reflects to you situation.
