gcc-ld woes

[dsb@goldfinch.cs.duke.edu (Scott Bigham)]

Is there a version of gcc-ld more recent than the one in mgutil36.zoo on
a.a?  That one's ca. May `93, and after fighting it for a while, I'm
about ready to drop-kick it across the room.  Specifically:

  - The -lfred option only looks for fred.olb, and won't pick up
    libfred.a.
  - It apparently doesn't scan libraries multiple times, leading to
    scads of undefined symbols unless I explicitly put every library on
    the command line twice.

Surely this has been fixed since then.
