The compiler flags seem to be all wrong for gcc.  When I run the "configure"
script with the environment variable CC set to gcc, the Makefiles are
created to invoke the compiler with:

  gcc -O -c -I. -DNDEBUG -O uddummy.c

and the "make all" runs to completion with no errors.  I'm using gcc 2.6.3
on sunos 5.4 with the standard make in /usr/ccs/bin/make.  I doubt that the
differences between gcc 2.7.0 and gcc 2.6.3 have anything to do with the
problem you are seeing.

Did you run the "configure" script to create the Makefiles?

Did you first instruct the "configure" script to use gcc by either setting
the CC environment variable or editing the CUSTOMIZE file, as instructed in
the INSTALL document?

Do you have any other environment variables set that might change the way
programs are compiled?

If none of these questions lead to a resolution of the problem, we will need
to see the config.status file created when you run the "configure" script to
try to diagnose the problem.
