Oh, thanks.  Seems I mess it up somehow.  Fixed now.

When trying to install ODBC on a solaris 7 machine i get the following
make error:

gcc -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -fPIC -G

/usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/sparc-sun-solaris2.7/2.95.2/crt1.o(.text+0x5c):
undefined reference to `main'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

The database made and installed without a hitch. this leaves me confused.

Any help with this bafflement would be appreciated.
thanks,

You need something like a "-shared" flag on the link step to get a
shared library. The linker is trying instead to find the entry point for
a program, and of course none exists...

Not sure why this isn't happening for you automatically; perhaps it is
because of the Solaris/gcc combination??
