[comp.lang.perl] Problems with 'ld -r' command

itkin@mrspoc.Transact.COM (Steven M. List) (10/20/90)

And one more time...

On SCO XENIX V/386 2.3.3, using the almost latest development system,
I receive the following error from 'ld'...
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
	ld   -r array.o cmd.o cons.o consarg.o doarg.o doio.o dolist.o dump.o 
eval.o form.o hash.o  perly.o regcomp.o regexec.o stab.o str.o toke.o 
util.o perl.o -ldbm -lbsd -lcrypt -lx -lm -o uperl.o
ld: error unknown option 'd'
*** Error code 1 (ignored)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If I remove all the '-lXXX' components, it works fine.  Is this only a
problem on XENIX?  Is there a way to make this work without including the
absolute pathnames of the archives on the command line?  I don't mind
editing the Makefile, but I have to go back and do it each time!

Sigh.
