At first:
Why not using the new bug-report feature of RHIDE??
(Alt+Space and the Bug report)


And to your problem. RHIDE adds when linking your program automatically
the '-liostr' switch if it detects, that some of the source files of
you project are C++ files (RHIDE checks this from the suffixes). So
I think you have compiled a C++ file. If you do so, you have probably
installed the archive 'gpp2721b.zip' but not 'lgp272b.zip' which
contains the libraries you need when linking a C++ program.
