Alex, 

Thanks for your message.  I don't know what linker we're talking about.

I wonder what is the difference between your setup and his.  

Come to think of it, I'm sure Bill Thompson has linked successfully on
Solaris, too.  Which linker, I'm not sure.  

I think it's important we understand what's going on.  Forewarned is
forearmed: at the very least, we should be able to tell our Solaris
friends what to expect.  

Regards,
