>Originator: Bill Trost
>Release: FreeBSD 4.0-20000208-CURRENT i386
>Organization:
Trost Computing
>Environment:
Stock 4.0-RELEASE-to-be, with all the 2.x and 3.x compat libraries.
>Description:
If you specify "-aout" on the cc command line, you get the
error message "ld: crt0.o: No such file or directory" (or
c++rt0.o if -shared is specified).
>How-To-Repeat:
$ echo 'main() {print("Oh, Hell World.\n");}' > foo.c
$ cc -aout foo.c
>Fix:
Got me -- I don't understand the a.out magic well enough to
start diagnosing it. If I remove crt.o from the ld command line,
ld then complains about libgcc.a having bad magic -- presumably
it is using the wrong library.
