I am trying to compile a C++ product on the NeXT.  I compiled g++
and used it to generate object-code files.  Now when I try to link,
it looks for the file 'ld++'.  If I link this to gcc-ld, I get 'load
failed' and it aborts.  If I run /bin/ld, I get an undefined symbol
type 0x16 ___CTOR_LIST__.  If I try to build ld++ it doesn't find
"a.out.h".

BTW: g++ and cc++ dump core when given a '+' option (eg. '+e0').  I
traced this to line 999 of gcc.c.  There is a missing increment
operation.  It should read:

>>> else if (argv[i][0] == '+')
>>>	n_switches++;
