[Cialug] chkrootkit compile

[John.Lengeling at radisys.com]

-l is used by ld to link against another library

Specifically -lc is trying to link against the C library.  I would be 
looking specifically for a file called /lib/libc.a or /usr/lib/libc.a

Can you successfully compile a simple helloworld program?
