I cannot find Wes at the moment who is our systems guru - we had this
error from someone else.  I wrote asking whether he was linking with
the same compiler and he never replied.

Make sure that $SYSUNIX/LDOPTS.SH contains the same thing as the
FDEFAULT.SH. 

But actually you are not getting that far.  The PP.FOR is not
compiling and that does not use the $SYSLOCAL files.  The wording of
your reply above concerns me a little - did you type in the Unix
command echo followed by the env variable name exacltly as above?

echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH

Sometimes when I type things to people they get confused over which
are Unix or aips command wors and which are part of the grammar of
the message itself.

Somewhere below /usr/local/lib should be files name libg2c.a in a
directory such as

/usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/2.95.3

You could try 

setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /usr/local/lib   (in C shell)
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib   (in bash)

and then try compiling PP in $SYSLOCAL again.
