[Caml-list] Build error on DEC Alpha

[Daniel Andor <da209@cam.ac.uk>]

Hi,

I've been trying to build 3.02 on a Tru64 box. I can't use the native code
compiler to link. I'm new to the list, so apologies if this has been
reported/fixed already (brief search in archive showed naught).

It seems the problem only occurs when trying to link to a library.

Platform details:

$ cc -V
Compaq C V6.3-027 on Compaq Tru64 UNIX V5.1 (Rev. 732)
Compiler Driver V6.3-026 (sys) cc Driver
$ uname -a
OSF1 tcm18.phy.cam.ac.uk V5.1 732 alpha
