Hello Dave,

Many thanks for the hint.  I believe that is the reason.  I saw the
same when compiling libglade with a .def file on the link line.  I
will try to figure out what happens if I install gm2l where it is
expected.

But it is not a solution for me to force the user to use flags which
are not needed in normal life.  Probably the Modula 2 specs needs to
be changed.  And the Makefile for the Modula driver needs to be
changed as well since the gm2l binary is missing after installation.

I'll rebuild GCC without Modula 2 driver for now.
