I believe that gcc generates valid NMOBJ output, but in bytestream
format, not 128W FB, and without the MPE typical NMOBJ filecode. You
should be able to use "ar" and "ld" to create NMRL or NMXL files, as
far as I recall. The list archives probably have examples posted by
Mark Klein long ago.

You might try /bin/frombyte -b to convert your TESTX file to a FB
format and also add the NMOBJ filecode to make linkedit happy. If
that works for you, then you most likely need a LINKEDIT patch for
your system...

The have been a few LINKEDIT versions that complained about or
rejected object files without the NMOBJ filecode or in bytestream
format. I don't recall the details, but the most recent LNK patch
should probably do the trick.

Regards, Lars.


PS... LINKEDIT on Invent3K is happy with bytestream objects w/o NMOBJ.
