The libc.a and the libm.a don't pose a problem as they already exist.
Can you explain why you need the libraries compiled -G 0?


According the the cc man page:

          -G num         Specify the maximum size, in bytes, of a data item
                         that is to be accessed from the global pointer.
                         The num argument is interpreted as a decimal
                         number.  If num is zero, data is not accessed from
                         the global pointer.  The default value for num is
                         8 bytes.
