I get an "undefined symbol" message at link time when I compile
and link the following test program on Lattice C 5.04 --

#include <stdio.h>

main()
{
  float fl = 1.0;
  printf("%f\n", fl);
}

I simply compiled it and linked it by typing "lc -L dummy" (
the program was dummy.c).  

The problem is definetly with the %f format, it works fine if the
float is replaced by an int and %d is used.

I am an experienced C programmer but completely new to programming
on the Amiga.   I suspect that the linker is not pulling in some
floating point library.

Please email any help to ewing@se-sd.sandiego.ncr.com.  My apologies
if this  is completely bone-headed or has been discussed ad infinitum
(I couldn't find any reference in my perusal of newuser).
