   What to the "-lg" and "-lld" libraries refer to?
   I don't think that I have those libraries.
   Should they be referenced in the Makefile?

On some COFF systems, the library ${libdir}/libld.a contains
subroutines for manipulating COFF format files.  I believe (CORRECT ME
IF I'M WRONG) that some of those same systems have ``debugable''
versions of the C library that contain extra debugging information;
-lg selects that library in preference to the default C library.

On a DECstation running Ultrix 3.1, the routines normally found in
libld.a have all been put into libc.a; in my experience both those
library references must be omitted there.
