[Pythonmac-SIG] Totally O.T. OS-X question

[Chris Barker]

Hi all,

This has nothing to do with Python, but you're a helpful group of 
knowledgeable folks, so I thought I try.

I'm trying to do some simple compilation with the command line gcc. Here 
is the code:

#include "stdio.h"

int main(){
     printf("hello world\n");
     return 0;
}

It couldn't be any simpler. However, when I try to compile it:

gcc -o junk junk.c

I get:

ld: can't locate file for: -lcrt1.o

Anyone have an idea? Shouldn't I be able to compile this very simplest 
of programs without providing library paths, etc. Besides that, I can't 
find a file with "crt1" in it on the system.

-thanks, Chris
