Hi All,

I read somewhere that linking may be an issue on certain platforms so I thought it's worth giving what the ocamlopt -verbose option reveals. Here it is:

+ as -o 'smallest.o' 'smallest.s'
+ as -o '/tmp/camlstartup219145.o' '/tmp/camlstartupbc831e.s'
+ gcc -o 'smallest'   '-L/usr/local/lib/ocaml'  '/tmp/camlstartup219145.o' '/usr/local/lib/ocaml/std_exit.o' 'smallest.o' '/usr/local/lib/ocaml/stdlib.a' '/usr/local/lib/ocaml/libasmrun.a' -lm

If noone can help here, could you please, direct me to another ocaml forum where such questions can be discussed?

Thanks&regards,
r0ller

According to point 3) make bootstrap reports success and make opt (point 4) worked fine as well. However, point 5) that is make opt.opt gives linking errors. Nevertheless, as far as I could understand, this should not pose any problem as then I only miss the optimized compiler versions that is the ones ending in .opt and they're missing indeed. Still, when trying to compile a hello world program called smallest.ml like:
