__gfortran_copy_string

[John Nelson]

I am trying to link a couple of simple c programs and a fortran  
wrapper (HBOOKwrap.F) with the CERN library.

gfortran compile option:   -ffixed-line-length-0

Link line:

gfortran -o Trg2ntp Trg2ntp.o getEv.o HBOOKwrap.o -L/cern/2005/lib - 
lpacklib

and I get an error:

/usr/bin/ld: Undefined symbols:
__gfortran_copy_string


Google on gfortran_copy_string shows that others have had problems  
with this and
cannot find where this piece of code is located.

gfortran was downloaded yesterday (23 June 2007) to MacOSX 10.4.10 on  
PowerPC G4.

gcc is latest installation from XCode 2.4.1

A hex dump of HBOOKwrap.o shows that gfortran_copy_string is not in  
its symbol table.

A hex dump of /usr/local/gfortran/libgfortran3.dylib shows that it  
does not contain this symbol.
It is not present in libgfortran.a either.

I am missing something, or have an incorrect gfortran library, or ??

Advice would be much appreciated.
