I can't compile a working file.

I'm not necessarily saying that it is a bug in cc, but in the gcc-csu (and maybe libc FreeBSD 
dependant parts) system as a whole

I haven't found a solution yet. I don't know what the ctor* and dtor* routines do,
and if I can omit them.

Who is we? And why do you think so? 

And who knows something about the internals of the CSU files? What can I
rip out, what not? If I rip out most stuff it doesn't seem to work. 

The problem is that I can't find any example about how to do it.
