This is Linux; surely we can assume gcc and ld?  As for Makefiles, I
assumed that the Eclipse "project" or "solution" or whatever it's
called doesn't use a Makefile.  (I strongly recommend a Makefile-based
build, by the way.  My experiences with IDE-specific ways of building
have been rather discouraging.)

I think all of that got fixed elsewhere in the thread.  As far as I
can tell, the OP knows more or less what to tell the compiler (and
seems to have a reason) but doesn't know how to tell Eclipse to tell
the compiler.
