Sorry if this is a FAQ, but I don't always have the time to follow this
newsgroup. So, here goes:

We're having trouble with the linker of our IBM RS6000. We want to build
a g++ application, and the linker gives an error message saying the TOC
overflows. We already tried the '-mno-fp-in-toc' option of gcc, but it 
still gives the same error.

The machine is running AIX 3.2, and we are using gcc 2.4.5 and libg++2.3.1

We also have the fixed assembler we got from out IBM rep.

The QUESTION is:

Is there any way to go around this TOC overflow problem ?

Any help will be deeply appreciated.

Thanks a lot.
