    I have a question about dynamic loading in Ultrix. !  I have tried to
   load dynamically functions which are in libc.a, such as gethostent !
   The loader then complains about:

    >ld:
    /lib/libc.a(gethostent.o): object not compiled with -G 0 will not work linking with -A

   Does anybody know if DEC fixed this in any of the 4.x release of
   Ultrix. Or in other words: are there versions of libc.a which can be
   used with dynamic loading or even tools which covert libc.a to a
   version which can be use with dynamic loading.


Try using libc_G0.a instead.  It is a -G 0 version of libc.
