Wow, that's a blast from the past.  My recollection is vague, as it
has at least been 15 years since I had to hear that name causing
trouble the last time ;-), but collect2 is a gcc thing that is used
on a platform, where the native linker cannot be directly used to
link gcc output with libraries, as "ld" replacement/wrapper.
