__main call for c++ on sparc-elf target

[Brenner Joel]

Hi all,
    I'm using gcc 3.3 configured and built as cross compiler for 
sparc-elf (binutils 2.14; newlib  1.11.0; insight 5.3 ). The problem is 
that I was expecting a call
to __main just at the beginning of main in order to execute the static 
class constructors placed in __CTOR_LIST__. There isn't any call to 
__main inserted by gcc and even
if I call it directly from my boot code gcc tells me that __main isn't 
defined. At the moment I do "manually" the call to  __CTOR_LIST__ but I 
thik this isn't the right way.

Why gcc does not insert the call to __main ? I suppose __main should be 
in gcclib.a, but it isn't there, why?


Thanks in advance joel brenner
