Re: directory names in linker

I don't know what you are talking about, but -belf has never done what you
think it does, and this has nothing to do with EGCS vs gcc.  Please see
the gcc documentation.

-melf is the correct option for both EGCS and gcc.

It would be possible to build a copy of gcc where -belf did something useful,
but that would require doing a lot of stuff by hand.  Perhaps someone once
distributed a binary package for gcc that was hand constructed in such a way
that -belf worked.  However, you can't expect -belf to work for a compiler that
you build yourself unless do the same hackery.  Since you have not done so,
in your build, the -belf option won't work for you.

Or perhaps you are confusing SCO C compiler options with gcc options.  Maybe
-belf if the correct SCO C compiler option?
