Well, that is very bad.
Since i don't have a broadband connection to the internet, I let a friend
download the files for me. It is gpc3.22 and gcc3.32. As there are holidays
at the moment and I live in a suburb, we can only met in school.
But even if there is a problem with the different versions, I should at
least find the library the linker wants to link against, even if this
library has the wrong version. Or is the development really so fast that a
whole library vanishes from one version to another?!?


The log that I produced using a verbose output looks as follows:

I wonder about -lgcc occuring twice in the parameter list of the linker
call. But even if I force gpc not to link the binary and call ld manually
with linking against gcc (whatever this may be), the problem occurs.
