Coincidentally, I was reading about this earlier today. Basically
Apple would like to prevent you using crt0.o:

2007/4/5, Michael Brian Bentley <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
I find that I'm using macports more and more as I try to do builds
using scripts that were developed on GNU/Linux systems with GNU
versions of tools. I am finding that there's just enough difference
in the use of some tools like sed and cp (of all utilities, cp?) that
force me to add the GNU version to /opt/local/bin using mac ports so
I can move on.

I have a command line tool that I'm trying to build on OS X for OS X,
using gcc 3. During the link phase, it searches for, but can't find
crt0.o. When I run this build script on a machine using a SuSE
distribution of GNU/Linux, no problem.

I'm using the macports installs for gcc41 and gcc42.

According to some recent reading,
http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/v2faq/faq8_2.html for example, I get the
impression that crt0.o is something that's provided by the gcc
compiler for the target platform. I see crt0.o provided with the
arm-elf xcompiler builds of gcc, but not for the intel / intel
versions of gcc. The linker is definitely looking for crt0.o, and the
script that calls gcc does not mention crt0.o anywhere. The crt0.o
file is mentioned in numerous other places for other builds.

I have found other files that seem related, like crtbegin.o,
crtbeginS.o, and so on.

Can anyone shed some light on this?

Thanks,

-Mike
