| 
| I got errors trying to build emacs-19.13, so I decided to get the latest
| gcc and build it.
| 
| I am running the latest gnu make, bison, flex, gas, and binutils. I built
| and installed all of them from fresh packages just before starting
| in on gcc. Except I built gas two weeks ago.
| 
| They are installed in non-standard places at the front of my path.
| 
| Configured as follows:
|    ./configure mips-dec-ultrix --prefix=/home/gnu/decserver --with-gnu-as \
|    --with-gnu-ld --with-stabs
| 
| I never built gcc with-gnu-ld before, but I figured go for it.
| 
| While making the stage 2 compiler, I get a lot of REALLY FRIGHTENING
| warnings, like:
|    /usr/lib/cmplrs/cc/ld:
|    cccp.o: does not have gp tables for all it's sectons
|    cexp.o: does not have gp tables for all it's sectons
|    version.o: does not have gp tables for all it's sectons
| 
| Two questions:
| 1) Why am I getting messages from /usr/lib/cmplrs/cc/ld?
|    `Which ld' returns:  /home/gnu/decserver/bin/ld
| 2) Is my emacs build and/or other stuff going to blow up on me again?
| 3) What's a secton?

This bug has already been reported against the MIPS ecoff version of
gas (gas produces .o files that produce the above warnings).  GCC is
not finding the GNU linker, and instead using the MIPS default linker.
Make sure the GNU linker is installed in the compiler directory as
'ld'.
