Hi,

When 1.3.2 was released, I installed it on my 5000/260. However, 
I never could compile anything. Last night, I did a complete reinstall
using the 1.3.2 packages (ie. newfs on / and /usr, and the tar zxvf
etc etc) so it really is a new install.

I still observe the following...

/home/cmlp >cat h.c
#include <stdio.h>

main()
{
        printf("hello\n");
}
/home/cmlp >gcc h.c
/usr/bin/as: 34: Syntax error: word unexpected (expecting ")")


The same error message on any file from anywhere that I try and compile.

and also, if it helps, merely

/home/cmlp >ld
/usr/bin/ld: 1: Syntax error: "(" unexpected

same error.

As this has never been reported before, I feel I must have done someting
wrong, but I sure can't think what!

cheers
Chris.
