I am trying to compile gcc-2.2.2 on a sparcstation 2 running sunos4.1.1
everything seems to work fine until it trys to make the program called
enquire. then I get this:

cp ./enquire.c . > /dev/null 2>&1
*** Error code 1 (ignored)
./gcc    -g -B./    -DNO_SC -DNO_MEM -DNO_STDDEF -O0 -I. -c enquire.c
./gcc    -g -B./  enquire.o -o enquire
ld: Undefined symbol 
   start_float 
collect: /usr/bin/ld returned 2 exit status
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `enquire'

start_float does not appear in any of the source code. However it is in
/usr/lib/libc.a. If I compile with the regular C compiler everthing it fine.
If I complile with cc and go on I get a similar message later in making the 
stage 1 version. It seems clear that there should be a routine called 
start_float but I have no idea where .

any help will be appreciated. please reply directly to:
