We were using the Compaq ar / nm pair to build the initial binutils.
We get the "File Truncated" error using either the GNU nm or the OS nm.
I think the problem is with the Compaq cc compiler. It only fails with a -g
on the Compiler cc compiler line.
Anyone know how to report the problem to Compaq?
