Making test0 failed because ld++ couldn't find libg++.a.  In ld.c, one can
add to the list of searched directories by defining DEFAULT_SEARCH_PREFIX.

The following change to the Makefile causes ld++ to know where to look for
libg++.a :

*** 111,117
  
  ld.o: ld.c
  #	uncomment the following line for Sun 3's
! #	$(CC) -Dmc68020 -DSUN3=3 -DTARGET=SUN3 -c $(PROFILE) $(CFLAGS) ld.c
  #	uncomment the following line for Sun 2's
  #	$(CC) -Dmc68010 -c $(PROFILE) $(CFLAGS) ld.c
  #	uncomment the following line for Sun 4's
