Hi,

I've got gcc 2.2.2 running on my NeXT and love it.  I want to get it
to run on our dec at work.  Here's the problem.

I have ulrtrix 3.1, but my ultrix compiler is version 2.1.  I know
this is strange, its a long story, and the cc2.1 with ld2.1 works just
fine.  I don't think this is the problem, but it may be important.

gcc compiles ok.  I have to compile "enquire" by hand with ultrix cc,
becuase gcc barfs.  I also have to run ./gcc -fspes_something specs
because the Makefile clobbers it when it should not.  I compiled gcc
in a directory other than the source directory.  I think the missing
"specs" file is a bug in the Makefile.  After that, everything seems
fine and gcc is installed.

PROBLEM

When a run gcc the linker (that /usr/bin/ld2.1 from dec) complains:

foo.o of wrong sex, object of wrong sex

The program is then not linked, and therefore clearly does not run.  


HELP.

Thanks in advance.
