Alcyon double precision math

How do I compile and link properly with the double precision math 
library, libm, with the Alcyon compiler/linker system? If I use 
the compiler flag " -e" specified in the Manual, I get an error
message stating that only certain flags (including -e!) are legal
and the compiler (1st pass) dies. If I follow the bat files 
example given with
the compiler and linker disks, which do not use a compiler flag but
link with libm, the test program compiles and links ok, but does not
execute properly. The test program simply defines c as double, sets it
to 1. then uses printf("c= %f", c) or printf("c= %lf", c) to output c.
I always get c= , i.e. no value for c output. 

Any help on this problem would be greatly appreciated.
