I have duplicated the problem using our correct installation of gcc 2.95.2
on our solaris machine by following Fred's instructions.

The foo executable core dumps immediately if -shared -nostdlib is used.  
One difference, though, is that -Wl,-G seems to produce an executable that
gets in an infinite loop.  I'm working on it...
