It appears that GCC is assuming that the system linker can accept the +init
option. In the ld(1) man page, +init appears under the heading "64 Bit (ELF)
Link Editor options", and the system is 32-bit-only---might that have something
to do with it?

I think GCC needs the GNU binutils linker now.

Also how did you configure GCC?

It certainly needs the GNU assembler (explicit configure-time error to that
effect), and I built binutils 2.17. That one said that (GNU) ld is "not
supported in this configuration"... moreover, the documentation for GCC's
HPPA-specific options list a few relevant to the HP linker.

Your HP system linker is too old.  Please update to PHSS_33034 or
later.  +init is a "common" option for both 32 and 64 bit links.
+init is used by GCC for initializers for the 32-bit runtime.  You
probably should install the latest patch bundle for 11.00.

PHSS_33034 is recommended because it fixes a critical error.  It's
also needed for Java in 4.2.  The installation documentation contains
the minimum patch requirements.

GNU ld doesn't support the 32-bit SOM runtime under hpux.  It's a
work in progress for the 64-bit runtime and not recommended.

Thanks for the note; I'll do that.

It would be good to have a configure-time check for this. This did seem to be a
system portability bug.
