Re: can't compile basic hello world on RHEL

I must be missing something major, because I can't get the following
simple program to compile:

#include <stdio.h>

int main(){
fprintf(stderr,"Hello world\n");

}

The error I get from doing "gcc -o testme testme.c" is:

/tmp/ccMJ0qjZ.o(.text+0x28): In function `main':
: undefined reference to `__getreent'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

I already did "up2date gcc" and "up2date compat-gcc-32-c++", but I
still get the same error. If I try to compile this on a Mac OS X
system, or on another linux system we have, everything is fine.

Does anyone have a clue as to what's going on?

Thanks,

Sound like a libxx not same as the one expected. different version.
unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH (check contents first of cause )
the reorder the libraries you probably don't need more than a very few
entries, mine is empty!
check also
cat /etc/ld.so.conf
/usr/kerberos/lib
/usr/X11R6/lib
/usr/lib/qt-2.3.1/lib
/usr/local/lib
/opt/sybase-11.9.2/lib
