   This seemed to work. GCC no longer complains about the the mSQL library
not being there. However, it does look like there is something in the msql
library that is not being referenced properly.

gcc test.c -I/usr/local/Minerva/include -L/usr/local/Minerva/lib -lmsql

    If anyone thinks this is off topic please let me know and I'll take it
off the listserv. I think that this material is a prime candidate to add to
the FAQ.
