Actually Vincent, I'm just checking my gcc 4.4.2 and if I move the
libgcc.a from /usr/lib/gcc/m68k-atari-mint/4.4.2/ and try this....

m68k-atari-mint-gcc -mshort -o main main.c

where main.c is the simplest you can get, I get this....

/usr/libexec/gcc/m68k-atari-mint/ld: cannot find -lgcc
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

I wouldn't have expected that as libgcc.a still exists in the mshort
directory below /usr/lib/gcc/m68k-atari-mint/4.4.2/mshort/
