You're still feeding code meant for gnu as to HPUX as.
 'gcc -print-search-dirs' will show where gcc is looking for binutils.
Normally, you would have gnu binutils and gcc installed in the same head
directory (e.g. /usr/local).  If you have binutils installed somewhere
other than where gcc is, you can use symlinks to solve the problem.  gcc
uses its own search path for binutils, not the shell's path, in order to
make it possible for gcc to coexist with other compiler brands.
