gcc 3.4.4 collect2: cannot find ld

["Moser, Dan \(GE Trans\)" <Dan dot Moser at Trans dot ge dot com>]

Hi,

I have seen some other (older-not gcc 3.4.4) posts regarding this issue but couldn't find where a solution was ever given.

I just upgraded to gcc 3.4.4.  I had been successfully using 3.4.3 and don't recall having to deal with this issue under that version.

Below is the verbose output of the attempted link (well, collect2).

The area of interest in the text below are the lines

========================================
collect2 version 3.4.4 (PowerPC Embedded)
ld_file_name        = not found
========================================

Note that 'ld' does exist on my path as '/usr/bin/ld'.

I have also tried placing ld at other locations in my path but still had the same problem.

Any insight is greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Dan Moser
