Well, upgrading isn't completely out of the question, but it'll be
more painful for sure.  I'll mail you some 2.6 CDs if that will help
with testing. :)

What you see is what's in the log.  I think it is running a version
check; a post to the group indicates that my problem there may be
related to the fact that /usr/ucb is in my path, so I took that out
and am in the process of testing the results.  What seems to be
happening in this case is that cc doesn't mind the "--version" flag
(although it doesn't recognize it), but ld does mind exits in the
manner that you see.

I'll see what I can do.  Where should I look for that definition?

Thanks for the info.
