Subject:	Problem with ld.exe

  I've downloaded the dos binary version 2.06 of GNAT from cs.nyu.edu,  
and am having trouble getting it to work with the example file.  I am  
using go32 version 1.12 Maint 2.  I do the 'gcc -c hello.adb', and it  
seems to work; I get the dos prompt back with no messages.  When I go to  
do the 'gnatbl -o hello.exe hello.ali', it thinks for about 20 seconds,  
then gives the message 'c:/ada/djgpp/bin/ld.exe: cannot open -lgnat:  
file not found'.  I ran the gcc and gnatbl commands from the c:\ada\gnat  
subdirectory.  My path statement and all set statements relfect gnat and  
djgpp being in the /ada directory.  I am running on a Zenith Z-Station  
510; 100mhz 486 with 12 megs of memory.
  I believe that the '-lgnat' referred to in the error message is a  
switch of some type, but the program is trying to use it as a file name.  
I had downloaded gnat from ftp.cnam.fr and had the same problem a few  
weeks ago.  Any help with this will be greatly appreciated.
