Hello,

I've trying to run PCLU lately with the RedHat-Athena dist, and
have found an odd problem. Code that compiles fine on DECs, Suns,
and Linux Slackware boxes (2.0, I think?) bombs during the link
stage on my machine with the following error:

PCLU -optimize -verbose -link scanner attribs.o token.o start_up.o 
gcc -o scanner attribs.o token.o start_up.o -L/afs/sipb.mit.edu/project/linux/lockers/PCLU/lib/code -lpclu_opt -lbsd -lm
/usr/lib/crt1.o: In function `_start':
/usr/lib/crt1.o(.text+0x57): undefined reference to `main'
attribs.o: In function `attribsOPcreate':
attribs.o(.text+0x13): undefined reference to `stringOPcopy'
attribs.o(.text+0x3b): undefined reference to `_pclu_erstr'
etc, etc, etc....

I ran PCLU with -verbose to show more info. As you can see, /usr/lib/crt1.o
is doing something odd. Is there something incompatible between RedHat
and other distributions' versions of that file that's causing something to
break?
