I only noticed it by accident - I was looking at the tar file with "tar
tvfz", and noticed that libg.a was over 2MB in size, and remembered
seeing libg.a as a symbolic link to libc.a...I thought that was odd at
the time. "tar xvfz" wont overwrite a symbolic link so I deleted the
link and untarred it again.

I'll see if i can get a copy from archie.au or monu1.cc.monash.edu.au (a
partial mirror of sunsite.unc.edu).  It sounds like I don't really need
it unless I am installing gcc from the sources, though.

try monu1.cc.monash.edu.au.

I thing I got my copy from loose.apana.org.au.  Or maybe from sunsite.
