Any ideas on what I need to make this work.

[Court Campbell]

ok, i got it. I changed the ld options in the make file form "-Wl,+b" to just "+objdebugonly,". Now it works.

-Patting myself on the back. ;P

[Court Campbell]

I found the answer to my issue.

[Dennis Handly]

The another solution is to change: ld='/usr/bin/ld'
To: ld=gcc
