linker unable to find Modula-2 standard libraries in source build

[Alice Osako]

    I am looking to use GNU
      Modula-2 13.x for a project (possibly more than one), and since
      the Linux distro I am using (Manjaro 23.1, the current stable
      release) does not yet include a pre-built package for gm2, I am
      building the compiler from source.
      
      I am able to build the compiler FE and run the automatic test
      suite with all tests passing. I had some difficulty finding where
      the .def files for the standard library were, and initially, a
      naive attempt to compile a test program
      
      $ gm2 Hello.mod -o Hello
      
      resulted in the error message
      
      <built-in>: error: the file containing the definition module
      ‘SYSTEM’ cannot be found
      
      
      Once I located where the .def files were in the build directory, I
      was able to add those to the include path manually. This resulted
      in a different error:
      
      $ gm2 -I/home/schol-r-lea/Deployments/gm2/gcc/gcc/m2/gm2-libs
      Hello.mod -o Hello
      /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lm2cor: No such file or directory
      /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lm2log: No such file or directory
      /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lm2pim: No such file or directory
      /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lm2iso: No such file or directory
      collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
      
      
      I was able to compile the test program to an object file, 
      
      $ gm2 -I/home/schol-r-lea/Deployments/gm2/gcc/gcc/m2/gm2-libs -c
      Hello.mod
      
      producing Hello.o, but when I tired to link the object file, it
      again was unable to link the standard libraries. I have the
      library path set as such:
      
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/lib:/home/schol-r-lea/opt/lib:/home/schol-r-lea/opt/lib64
      
      I expected that the compiler build script would place the
      libraries to the path I set ($HOME/opt/lib) but this does not seem
      to be the case. The executable for the compiler FE is where I
      expected it ($HOME/opt/bin) so I know that this aspect is correct,
      but I think I am sill doing something wrong. My build script is:
      
      ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
      #!/bin/bash -e
      
      GM2_DIR="$HOME/Deployments/gm2"
      GCC_SRC="$GM2_DIR/gcc"
      GCC_BUILD="$GCC_SRC/build"
      DEST="$HOME/opt"
      LIBDIR="$DEST/lib"
      
      TARGET="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu"
      
      cd $GCC_SRC
      
      cd $GCC_BUILD
      
      TARGET_DIR="$GCC_BUILD/$TARGET"
      if [ ! -d $TARGET_DIR ]; then
         mkdir -p $TARGET_DIR
      fi
      
      cd $TARGET_DIR
      
      $GCC_SRC/configure --host=$TARGET \
                         --target=$TARGET \
                         --prefix=$DEST     \
                         --bindir=$DEST/bin \
                         --libdir=$LIBDIR \
                         --libexecdir=$LIBDIR \
                         --enable-threads=posix \
                         --enable-clocale=gnu \
                         --disable-multilib \
                         --disable-bootstrap \
                         --enable-checking \
                         --enable-languages="m2"
      
      make all-gcc
      make all-target-libgcc
      make all-target-libgm2
      make install-strip-gcc install-target-libgcc
      make check-m2 -j 4
      
      ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
      
      I am certain that I am making a simple error in this but I can't
      seem to determine what it is.
