I use latest binutils and g++ 3.0.4 on Tru64Unix 5.1A. I was not able to 
link the object files woth native Tru64Unix linker because of errors on 
multiple definitions:

"weak symbol multiply defined" - tons of these messages.

So I installed gcc/g++, binutils and the linker crashes ....

Thanks in advance,
