[Bug bootstrap/39111] gcc 4.4.0 20090204 - Configury from GNU linker to Operating System's Linker broke (reverse works OK)

There really is some trouble with the scripts in this area.

As you might expect simply restarting the make simply repeats the
trouble, shows the same errors and ends the build.

If you restart the build with "gmake -i -k" then you will get _many_
errors for those three shared libraries _BUT_ the build will continue.

The Makefile will 'discover' that those libs are missing and it
rebuilds those errant object files -- it ends up re-making those
libraries and building correctly a second time around after 
using "gmake -i -k".

A subsequent use of simply "gmake" (no "-i -k") will not build _any_
new files. Now simply use "gmake install" to complete everything.

I am very early in the "make -i check" tests but they seem to be 
working OK and gcc seems to pass the same tests for "C" or "Ada"
with Sun's Linker as opposed to the prior run with GNU's Linker.
