The UI for the project I'm working on is being developed by a separate
group using a Motif interface builder. This generates ansi C which I am
atempting to compile with gcc (2.2.2) and link with the core of the
application which is to be written in C++. 

The problem I have is that when I get to the link stage I get an
the error:
ld: Undefined symbol 
   __assert 
collect: /usr/bin/ld returned 2 exit status

Because the UI is Motif it use the xopen (/usr/xpg2lib on SunOS 4.1.1)
environment and this is what is causing the problem. (assert is called
from a function in libxpg.a). So I thought I'll give the -nostdlib
flag to gcc and see if that sorts it out. But instead I get:

ld: Undefined symbol
   _environ
collect: /usr/bin/ld returned 2 exit status

Does anyone know a solution to this problem.
	Ab.
