Ok... wrong again, but I think I've got it now, heh... All of the linker
options in /usr/lib/gcc-lib/sparc-sun-solaris2.9/3.2/specs tell gcc to look
in /usr/ccs and /usr/ucb for everything, which begs the question WHY? Why
did the guys at sunfreeware do this? Well, I think I know HOW it happened
(the used /usr/ccs/bin/ld to link gcc when they compiled it), but why did
they do this when they know that gcc and Sun's ld don't behave?
