System loader problem?

[Ovidiu Toader <ovi at physics dot utoronto dot ca>]

Hi,
There seems to be a problem with dynamically linked executables created
by egcs on an AIX.4.1.5 (egcs was built with --enable-shared). The
problem remains even when g++ is configured with --with-gnu-ld instead
of the native ld. Apparently the system loader does not understand the .
(dot) special file from the loader section of the libstdc++.a library
(shared library). Any idea about how this problem can be solved? 
Thanks!
