Hi

I'm trying to get g77 to work on a P3 here and am having a time of it.
Actually, I'm trying to install another program and the configure script is
bombing when it tries to use g77. It complains that ld can't find crtbegin.o.

I have another machine that is "identical" to this one and the test program
compiles just fine. I've made sure that crtbegin.o is in all the same places on
both machines. I've reinstalled the compilers (gcc and g77) a couple of times
and, at least according to my notes in the first install, there hasn't been
additional problems. Certainly none that LOOKED serious. I've ripped out
binutils (the source of ld) and reinstalled, but that didn't help. I don't see
anywhere in the man pages where ld is searching. Though some options to the
compiler might be a workaround, I'd rather get it working correctly. Anyone
have any ideas on what to look for?

Thanks
