Hi Guys,

few days ago I posted saying that I was having problems since I upgraded to
gcc 2.7.2.1 and libc-5.4.23.

Problem was that I was getting huge binaries, after some help from kind people
I found that my binaries were being statically linked. This led me to believe
that there was some problem with gcc finding the correct libraries.

After some mucking around with ldconfig, I had a brainwave to read the 
release.gcc-5.4.23 and it said that I needed an ld.so-1.8.1 or higher. Anway, I
got ahold of ld.so-1.8.9.

Running the newer ldconfig told me that there was problems with symlinks libc
and libm in the /usr/lib directories. Strange that ldconfig for ld.so-1.7.14
didnt pick that one up.

Anyway, I fixed the symlinks in /usr/lib and everything is compiling dynamically
now.


Thanks
Graham
