I have a SPARC machine running UNIX SVR4.

Why is USE_COLLECT2 always defined? Doesnt egcs work with the binutils
2.8.1 linker?
If I have to use collect2, how do I tell it to call the binutils linker
rather than the default one on my system, which it seems to find in
/usr/ccs/bin? The binutils ld is earlier in my PATH when collect2 was
built. collect2 calling /usr/ccs/bin/ld causes problems because I want
to pass certain options to binutils-ld which /usr/ccs/bin/ld does not
support.

        * Makefile.in (USE_COLLECT2): Always use collect2.
        (collect2): Depend on and link in hash.o and tlink.o.
        (tlink.o, hash.o): Add dependencies.
