gcc 2.95.1 Linux Install trouble "-lgcc"


Sorry if this is an FAQ, but I cannot find the answer...

I tried to install gcc2.95.1 with the pgcc patch
(but I think the problem has nothing to to with the pgcc patch)

I did as recommenbded:

mkdir objdir
cd objdir
/(sourcedir)/configure
make bootstrap.

My system is
Linux ghhpc 2.0.36  i686 unknown

The first attempt to bootstrap fails
at some point because of a "permission denied".
Running it as root succeeds.
Then I type "make install"
which proceeds without error.
But when I try to compile a program 
I get:

/usr/bin/ld: cannot open -lgcc: No such file or directory
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

$ ld --version

I never asked for "-lgcc" ! What does it mean?
I have installed various versions of "egcs" before
and never had any such problem.

Please help.
