problems with C++ symbols

["Paul Forgey" <paulf at aphrodite dot com>]

I'm using egcs-1.0.3a on hppa1.1-hp-hpux9.05, and certain C++ symbols aren't
resolvable with the linker, ld.  Although I'm using binutils 2.9.1, ld isn't
supported for that platform, so I have to use the hp version.

I'm noticing the exact same symbols also fail with freebsd
(i386-unknown-freebsd2.2.6).

It isn't a simple matter of tweaking how the symbols may get represented
unless I re-write the code.  The particular symbols it's having trouble with
are derived from templates.

Is there any insight which may help me start finding where to look?  Does
somebody out there have a preliminary patch for binutils to get ld working
on hpux 9.x?

Thanks.
