  I get exactly the same error.  But I was too lazy to immediately report 
it, besides I was tyring to see if I could solve the problem first.

  I was able to reduce the errors by trying various MSVCNT libraries in  
libs.ld  such as \msvcnt\lib\msvcrt.lib, but still get a unresolved symbol 
for __iob on the test_stdio test program.

  Note that we must report these type of problems to:

    report@gnat.com

and it also helps to report it to:

    labtek@yale.edu

  I put these sites on the CC list for this reply.
