I think we're missing a gcc library or something...


napali /home/beauty/rontay/test 548 cat main.c
main()
{
}
napali /home/beauty/rontay/test 549 gcc -c main.c
napali /home/beauty/rontay/test 550 gcc -o main main.o
main.o: undefined reference to `___main'
napali /home/beauty/rontay/test 551 
napali /home/beauty/rontay/test 551 
napali /home/beauty/rontay/test 551 
napali /home/beauty/rontay/test 551 gcc main.c
main.o: undefined reference to `___main'
napali /home/beauty/rontay/test 552 
napali /home/beauty/rontay/test 552 
napali /home/beauty/rontay/test 552 nm main.o

nm: can't open 'main.o'.
napali /home/beauty/rontay/test 553 gcc -c main.c
napali /home/beauty/rontay/test 554 nm main.o
         U ___main
00000000 T _main
00000000 t gcc2_compiled.
napali /home/beauty/rontay/test 555 


If I move main.c to main.cc and try "gcc main.cc" the
compilation completes with no errors.


Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks!
