 I am very desperate to get gnu ld going on SCO Unix V.3.2.0

 I have compiled it but now have another problem. Running robotussin 
 on the library libc.a (for the rcc AT&T compiler) yields errors of the
 form :

     robotussin : truncated string table - expected -4 got 0

 on some of the .o files. One file it happens on is sleep.o
 Whether this is the problem or something else, any program linked with
 gnu ld crashes with a segmentation fault.

 All I really need is a working gnu ld and a working library converter
 for SCO Unix V.3.2.0 using the COFF-ENCAP options.

 Any help would be vastly appreciated.

 This really needs to be done in the next 24 hours
