Is it a ld-Problem? I've just tried it, but it works very well.

Here is my system-info:

reality:~/pascal$ gpc -v
Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i486-unknown-linux/2.7.2.1.f.1/specs
gpc version 2.0(2.7.2.1.f.1)
reality:~/pascal$ ld -v
ld version 2.7 (with BFD 2.7.0.3)

Ok, this is the gcc with the g77 compiler. I've sent some patches to Jan-Jaap
and they will be added to the FAQ. (In fact it's only in the file toplev.c
where some options were added.)

Bye, Nils
