This problem seems to be related to gcc versions later than about 2.0.
If you look at the link command for temacs it will probably end with
-lc -lgcc. That should read -lgcc -lc, and you may need a -L option to
point ld at the gcc libraries. Maybe the distribution should be sorted
out for gcc 2.x ?
