I have looked into it further: it is gmalloc that calls getpagesize but never 
defines it.  It is true that the 'ld' code defines it for itself.  I am 
further confused 'cuz the source for gmalloc has ominous warnings about
editing the file 'cuz it was automatically generated.

I've also had trouble compiling ranlib 'cuz it can't find xmalloc.  It looks
like the alloca.o that I got out of the gcc directory wants to call xmalloc.
This wasn't a problem for: ar,gprof,ld, nm objdump, size, and strip 'cuz
they all define their own xmalloc.


Any one got any hints?  Did I leave something important out or not set a flag
properly?

Thanks
