You're right about using GNU's assembler and linker. I tried that after I was
getting warnings building "stage1". I had some problems, so I decided to go
back to using DEC's stuff and that's when I started getting this problem with
the first make.

I looked at GNU's libc.a, but it's not supported for this OS yet. :-(

If I find a solution, I'll post it.
