Note we're looking for __register_frame_info, not register_proc_info.

That may or may not actually be the root of the problem.  Good to
know for a workaround though.

Can you look at these two files to see if they reference
__register_frame_info as an undefined symbol?

They're particularly interesting because they appear after
-lgcc on the command line gcc builds for the linker (based on
the -Wl,-v -Wl,-t output you sent).

/usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/i586-pc-linux-gnu/egcs-2.90.27/crtend.o
/usr/local/lib/crtn.o
