Stray characters in .o files....

[Thomas J Amato]

After I submitted this to the message board I realized that I had the -x
c++ (not sure how it got there ;-o ) option on the command line. Pilot
error.

I'd guess that the .o file is not being recognized for what it is,
and it is being processed as source of some kind.

1) How are you invoking the linker?
2) What does the -v (verbose) flag tell you?
