State-Changed-Why:
    Fixed in 3.3.  There is a no switch to generate the
    correct linker option for the GNU and HP linkers.
    Note this doesn't actually change the default linker
    selected at configure time.

>Description:
When g++ is asked to build a shared library through the
-shared option on hppa64-hp-hpux11.00 I get the following
error:

ld: Unrecognized argument: -shared
Fatal error.
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
>How-To-Repeat:
// Begin foo.C
#include <iostream>
int main() {
  std::cout << "Hello world." << std::endl;
}
// End foo.C

I built g++ using the configure options of
--host=hppa64-hp-hpux11.00
--disable-shared
--disable-threads
--without-gnu-ld
--with-ld=/usr/ccs/bin/ld
--with-gnu-as
--with-as=/PATH_TO_BINUTILS/as
--enable-languages=c,c++

I get the error with the following compile lines:
g++ -c foo.C
g++ -shared foo.o -o foo.sl
>Fix:
Applied the following change to gcc/config/pa/pa64-hpux.h
