Where is -lgcrt1.o?

[John Chambers]

After upgrading to OSX 10.3, I now find that all my compiles die during
the link stage with the error message:

ld: can't locate file for: -lgcrt1.o

The string "crt1" doesn't occur anywher in any of my files, or in my environment,
or anywhere else I can find. There are no files with "crt1" in their names on
the disk. The man command doesn't know about it. Google doesn't know about it.
A search at apple.com comes up empty.

Anyone know why this is happening? It's a total showstopper.

Did you try re-running configure?

No, because I don't have a clue as to what that could mean. ;-)

In the mozilla directory, do a
./configure

and then do the make again.

However, I've seen other reports of people having linkage issues with
-lgcrt1.o, and I haven't seen any solution posted.
