How strange.  It works for us.  I haven't got enough information to figure
out what's happening from your message.  Try this compiling the

	main() { printf("Hello World\n"); }

program with this command line:

	gcc -v -g hello.c 2> temp	(bourne shell)
or
	gcc -v -g hello.c >& temp	(C shell)

Then do
	what /bin/ld >> temp
	grep rel= /etc/perms/soft >> temp

and mail me the contents of the temp file.  That will give me a bit more
info then we can take it from there.
