Subtraction of two symbols

[Dan Carlson <decarlson1 at juno dot com>]

Hello to all,

Help!

I don't know if this is a common egcs problem....

I still don't know what to do with the arm-uc-libc.tar.gz file on the
ARM7TDMI ucLinux site.  Do I replace the libc directory in newlib with the
files supplied by arm-uc-libc.tar.gz???

I have manually tried to compile the vfscanf.c file but the same type of
error still occurs.  Isn't there anyone else out there that has had this
kind of "Subtraction of two symbols" error happen while building...

Maybe I should post this message in an egcs or cross compiler newsgroup???

It seems to me that perhaps I could just skip compiling vfscanf.c ???

Can anyone suggest a distribution of egcs files that might build easily in a
cygwin environment for the arm-elf or arm-uclinux target?

Thanks

Dan
