The place to look is in the man page for ld or ld.so. Also refer to
the mkconfig.h file at the root of the XForms distribution. There
should be some lines at the bottom which look like
#
# this is how the shared library is made
#
MKSHLIB=ld -shared -soname $(SHARED_SO) -o $(SHARED_LIB)\
`ls *.o|grep -v gl.o` ulib/*.o ../xpm-3.4g/lib/libXpm.a
which will be useful in sorting out the parameters which ld wants.
There may also be some gcc flags to generate the object code in the
proper manner, probably something like
CCFLAG=-O -fPIC
spl
