This error crops up while compiling Kerberos v4 under NetBSD0.9 using the
stock cc/ld.  The library is there, every object in it compiled with
no errors, and neither ar nor ranlib produced any adverse output.  But
still, I get these silly "bad magic number" errors.  

Can anyone suggest a plan of action in trying to diagnose this error?

Thanks,

Doug
