Specifically, even though gcc_bcmp.c is copied into the RTS directory, it is never referenced in the makefile. (MakeHPFS.RTS)

You are right! =:-O

I never understood what gcc_bcmp.[c|o] did in the RTS. It comes from libgcc2.a which ends up in libgcc.a. Every app is linked to libgcc.a, so why duplicate it in libgpc.a?
