Subject:	Keep getting ld skipping incompatible
Group:	Gcc-help
From:	Blake McBride
Date:	29 Sep 2007

I am using GCC 4.1.0 on OpenSUSE Linux 10.1 on a 32 bit machine. I have
no 64 bit anything installed that I am aware of.)

If I do: gcc t.c libgc.a
It works. (libgc.a is in the current directory)

If I do: gcc t.c -L`pwd` -lgc
I get:

/usr/lib/gcc/i586-suse-linux/4.1.0/../../../../i586-suse-linux/bin/ld:
skipping incompatible /home/blake/EuLisp/EuLysses/Gc/libgc.a when
searching for -lgc
/usr/lib/gcc/i586-suse-linux/4.1.0/../../../../i586-suse-linux/bin/ld:
cannot find -lgc
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

The listed libgc.a is the one I am using (that is my current working
directory).

I am lost. Any help would be appreciated.
