I'm not an expert on rhide, but you could try the "-v" switch to gcc
to see where it looks for libgcc.a. Then you check if there is any
libgcc.a in any of the places gcc searched (there probably won't
be). So now you need to unzip the .ZIP that holds that libgcc.a (I
think it's in gcc*b.zip, but I'm not sure).
