Thanks! that's encouraging.
I assume this means that I should install two symlinks:
/usr/freeware/bin/ld -> /var/sysgen/root/usr/bin/ld
/usr/freeware/lib/gcc-lib/mips-sgi-irixX.Y/2.7.2/ld -> /var/sysgen/root/ld
Or something close to this.
This plus building gcc -with-gnu-as, using -32 -old_ld in the specs file
and Bean's permission to package crt[1n].o should solve all the problems
I'm aware of and make many customers happy.
That was very helpful. Looks like a solution is close. Thanks again.
