I bet you have (out-dated) GNU binutils installed (as, ld, nm, ar in
particular)... If you want to compile for UltraSPARC get rid of
binutils(*), make sure you have SUNWbtool, SUNWsprot and SUNWtoo
installed (well, SUNWtoo is usually installed) and /usr/ccs/bin appears
early enough on the $PATH. Alternatively you can try to update binutils,
but we don't guarantee anything. Third option is to run './Configure
solaris-sparcv8-gcc' and thus fall down to SuperSPARC build.
(*) if 'which [as|ld|nm|ar]' doesn't give a clue, run 'truss -f -t exec
gcc any_prog.c' and examine which programs are invoked.
Andy.
