Thanks to those who commented on my posting about this problem. Sorry about 
the mis-posting. Correction accepted and applied in the future. However in 
hindsight this may belong in comp.bugs.sys5 after all. It seems that
on the Tower XP the -lm option is sensitive about where it lives in the 
cc command line and the format of the other options present. This was 
unearthed after a long discussion with NCR software support. 

For example:
	cc -O -o outfile infile.c -lm       Fails
	cc -O -lm infile.c -ooutfile        Succeeds
