    I am attempting to build the latest test release of g++ obtained from
    yahi.stanford.edu on 8/24 at around 2:00. The version of gcc being used
    is 1.35.96, also obtained from yahi.stanford.edu.

    The problem occurs in attempting to link cc1plus. ld++ aborts with the
    following error:

	    unex-addr.c:7: Undefined symobol start referenced from text.

Write your own version of this function:

    char *
    start_of_text ()
    {
      extern int start () asm ("start");
      return ((char *) start);
    }

to use whatever symbol is the start of text for your program.  It is
"start" for Sun4.  It might be "_start" for Sun3.  It is OS and
machine dependent.
