Description:

When compiling a program it fails because the linker cannot find libieee. This is because the library is dropped in recent versions of glibc. This has been reported[1] and fixed[2] upstream. Applying the patch from [3] fixes the problem (although it has conflicts for the non-linux builds, I just shortened the patch)

I should have made it clearer that this is a report for gambit-c, I don't seem to be able to change the title

Upgraded gambit-c to the latest version. Please confirm that it now works as it should.
