Well, looks like I really was unclear on that subject. I get two
symbolic links each, abc-prelinked.o and abc-prelinked.lo that
point to each other. E.g. antlr-prelinked.lo is a link to
antlr-prelinked.o, which in turn is a link to antlr-prelinked.lo

It's just that: "antlr-prelinked.lo: Too many symbolic \
links in path name traversal." (kind of obvious, isn't it? :)

Thanks for your help! Now it compiles right through. I still get
a runtime error when starting lookat, but I guess that's because
the GLUT library was compiled with the MIPS compiler (as stated
in the README).
