Subject: Objective-C with gcc(version 2.6.0) problems

Hello,

I started to try compiling Objective-C programs with my gnu cc
implementation (djgpp 1.12, gcc 2.6.0 on a 486 under MS-DOS).

A very short program, with

main()
{
	[Object alloc] ;
}

generated (using gcc main.m -o main -lobjc) errors telling me

Undefined symbol "global constructors keyed to main" referenced

There was a similar question a few days ago concerning the linux
implementation of Objective-C in the news. It was mentioned, that the old
version of gcc (2.5.8) does not have this problem.

Also I could not compile the sample program of the news faq.

Could anybody out there give me some advice.

Thanks in advance

		Oliver
