strange linking problem

["Alexander Gdalevich" <gdalevich at hotmail dot com>]

Greetings!

I've recently build the newest gcc 3.3.2 cross-compiler.  It works fine, but 
I have trouble linking with ld.

Here is the output from gcc when compiling a regular helloworld program:

Program
===============================
hello.c
---------------------------------------------------------------------
#include <stdio.h>

int main(int argc, char ** argv)
{
   return fprintf(stderr, "Hello world!\r\n");
}
===============================


Output when linked with collect2:

===============================
sh-elf-gcc -mb -fno-delayed-branch -O2 -m4 -v hello.c

I'll appreciate any clue as to what's going on.


Thanks.
