I have a similar question for Sun 4 OS 4.  Apparently, there is a
problem with using gnu LD to link programs with shared libraries on Sun
OS 4.0.  The Makefile recommends using collect instead.  Unfortunately,
when I try to use collect, I cannot compile it because I do not have the
ld library.  Where can I find this?

Also, is it possible to use gnu LD for linking programs with non-shared
libraries but use collect for linking programs with shared libraries?
If so, how do I do this?

Lastly, has anyone figured out a way to add support to gnu LD for shared
libraries as is suggested in the Makefile?

Thanks
