I am trying to install amacs on RS6000 running AIX using the file
obtained from University of Washington. The compiling went fine, but
when tring to link the object files using ld, I gor the following
messages:

0706-221 WARNING:  Import version of 'rename' replaced by local definition.
0706-222 WARNING:  Import version of 'readv' replaced by import definition.
     ...  ...

0706-244 ERROR: No entry point or export symbols were found
         following garbage collection.
make: 1254-004 The error code from the last command is 8

make: 1254-004 The error code from the last command is 1.

The 0706-244 ERROR looked quite strange because emacs.o did have the
main function defined.

I try to use the binder option "nogc", it only produced some unresloved
refernces. Being quite new to AIX, I don't what kind of options should I
set to link it correctly. Can anybody help me to solve this problem?
 
Thanks.
