Hey Everyone!! To follow up, I think that the problem is a bit more complex. I am guessing now that there is a Linux/ELF compat mechanism somewhere in the default compiler search path. I think for hlibc to work with NetBSD I'll have to research how this all works, or perhaps even specify a different binary format. Because I am redirecting the compiler search paths to only look for hlibc's libc.a, crt1.o, crtn.o and crti.o something is probably getting excluded. Open to suggestions, but I am starting to think this is not a system maintenance issue but something of a different nature having to do with various less used compiler invocations.
Thank you!
