I am attempting to get g++-1.25 going on an AT&T 3b1 which uses the
COFF a.out format. A document accompanying the g++ distribution
specifically states COFF is not supported.
ld++ and collect use a.out.h and need to be COFFized.
Has anyone rectified this situation and taught g++ COFF?
gcc-c++ works fine and is producing objects, only a way to link
remains to be found.
Has anyone gotten any version of g++ going on a 3b1?
On a more theorectical level, why is a specialized loader necessary?
How is a standard ld insufficient for the job?
