Hello, all...

I'm trying to build socks to allow socks clients to run on our Sun
(SS 20/71, SunOS 4.1.4), and we use gcc for just about all our
development.  Currently, we are running gcc 2.5.8.  When linking
socks with the Sun C library (libresolv.a, in particular), I get
__GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ undefined.  This symbol is defined by
Sun's ld.

Using /usr/bin/ld to link *any*
objects (even a simple hello world) produces an executable that just
seg faults and core dumps, and Sun's cc compiler has a difficult time,
and I believe that some porting will be required for that route.

Has anybody seen this problem before / is it a known and / or fixed
item?  Would a newer version of gcc/ld help?  Any assistance would
be greatly appreciated.

Oh.  If its in a FAQ, please point me at the relevant info.  I'm not
above doing some work.

Thanks in advance.

-Nick
