arm-linux-ld problems

[chris kurpinski <karp at vespa dot icsl dot ucla dot edu>]

Ok, I have a port of ucos-ii for ARM, that was written to compile
using arm-elf-gcc.  However, I need to compile it with arm-linux-gcc,
because simplescalar-arm can't handle files compiled with arm-elf for
some reason.  After re-writing some of the assembly files, I can get
everything to compile with arm-linux, but when I go to link I get the
following errors:

arm-linux-gcc -Wall -g -nostartfiles -mthumb-interwork -fPIC -O2
-static -fdata-sections -ffunction-sections -Wl,-T eb40angel.ld

I'm using arm-linux-gcc 2.95.2 on suse linux 8.0

SO.  Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get this to link?  
Are the differences between arm-elf and arm-linux documented anywhere?
Does anyone have a list of steps required for converting programs from one
toolchain to the other?

my brain is fried right now, any suggestions are appreciated.
Thanks,

Chris K
