Jifl,

Thank you very much for your help!

export solved problem with --srcdir!

But link problem remains... :(

Here is ld's output:
==
[rdim@localhost bin]$ pwd
/tools/H-i686-pc-linux-gnu/i386-elf/bin
[rdim@localhost bin]$ ld -v
GNU ld version 011013 20011013
[rdim@localhost bin]$
==

May be I have to use another ld, for instance located here?

==
[rdim@localhost bin]$ pwd
/tools/H-i686-pc-linux-gnu/bin
[rdim@localhost bin]$ ls -l
