Subject: crt1.o [ELF] is broken in 3.0-release?

Hello all,

Running Freebsd 3.0-release, there appears to be a bug in
/usr/lib/crt1.o which will not allow one to compile an ELF
gcc-2.8.1 from origional source or even install the port:

1. the port: (this is a really bogus error, BROKEN_ELF; gcc-2.8.1 compiles
	ELF binaries on other platforms)

# make install
===>  gcc-2.8.1 is broken for ELF: /usr/lib/aout/crt0.o: file not recognized: File format not recognized.
#

2. compile from origional source: (this is what I really want to do)

# make LANGUAGES=c
...<snip>...
./xgcc -B./  -DIN_GCC   -g -I./include   enquire.o -o enquire
/usr/libexec/elf/ld: cannot open crt0.o: No such file or directory
*** Error code 1

Stop.
#

3. compile from origional source: (after either: a. symlink
	/usr/lib/crt0.o /usr/lib/crt1.o -or- b. editing
	<build-directory>/specs and replacing all occurences of crt0 -> crt1)

# make LANGUAGES=c
...<snip>...
./xgcc -B./  -DIN_GCC   -g -I./include   enquire.o -o enquire
/usr/libexec/elf/ld: warning: cannot find entry symbol start; defaulting to 080483d0

*** Error code 1

Stop.
