RE: solaris, collect2 and ld

It's me again.  <groans from the audience>

The latest:
Recompiled egcs with the above option.  Then I started
on the libgcj build.  I got past the error with collect2 
wanting to use /usr/ccs/bin/ld and now have the following 
problem.  Incidentally, this is the same problem I had 
when I temporarily replaced /usr/ccs/bin/ld with a symbolic 
link to the gnu linker.

-tim

How configure was called:

aries:/codebase/tim/libgcj-obj> ../libgcj-snapshot-1999-06-02/configure
--prefix=/backup/tim/egcs-1999.06.02 --enable-java-gc=boehm
--enable-fast-character --enable-threads=posix
--with-ld=/user/tim/binutils/bin/ld --with-gnu-as

Then I called "gmake" and got this build error:
