Cross-Compiler issue

[Andreas Rottmann <a.rottmann@gmx.at>]

Hi!

I just made up a cross-compiler for the HURD, but the linker has minor
problems:

Given the minimal C program:

--------
int main() { return(0); }
---------

and this command line:

~$ i586-pc-gnu-gcc test.c

I get this output:

[blah bloh]
 /usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/i586-pc-gnu/2.96/collect2 -m elf_i386 -dynamic-linker /lib/ld.so crt1.o crti.o /usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/i586-pc-gnu/2.96/crtbegin.o -L/usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/i586-pc-gnu/2.96 /tmp/ccTC2c4u.o -lgcc -lc -lgcc /usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/i586-pc-gnu/2.96/crtend.o crtn.o
/usr/local/bin/i586-pc-gnu-ld: cannot open crt1.o: No such file or directory
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

Up to the link everything works fine, but then the compiler fronend
(at least I guess it's responsible for that) passes the various .o
files without leading path to the linker. The same thing done with the
linux native linker prepend /usr/lib to them and evrything is ok.

I can add the path manually, and I get an a.out (which hopefully will
run on the HURD ;-)), so the linker itself should be okay. I guess
this has something to do with the 'spec' file. I poked into it, but
didn't understand it and could find no good documentation.

Anybody out there who knows how I can get i586-pc-gnu-gcc to prepend
/usr/local/i586-pc-gnu/lib automatically?

Thanks, Andy
