1. Please don't send bugs to ibmsupt directly.  You don't know whether
   the bugs you report have already been reported to them, and I do.
   If it's necessary for a bug report to be filed with IBM, I'll do
   it, believe me.

2. Our version of ld has many local changes (e.g. Z0MAGIC).  It's
   quite possible that the bug you're reporting was caused by our
   modifications, in which case IBM won't be able to fix it.

3. The version of hc you're running does not affect the version of ld
   you run.

4. Were you using the -Z flag when you got these errors?

5. Did it print any other errors?
