The attached works on cfarm13 at least.
Yes, since on Debian 11 a build with
gl_cv_asm_section_o=no ./configure; make; make check
succeeds, the best fix is to tweak the autoconfiguration,
to not use section flag 'o' if not well supported.
The patch to m4/sd-dlopen.m4 looks fine to me.
But what's the point of the patch to lib/sd-dlopen.h?
It risks that we again run into the problems with LLVM < 18,
that Luca already ran into. IMO that's not worth the risk,
for a simplification of less than 1 line of code.
OK I was thinking the link check would be enough to
implicitly check that, but fair enough I'll remove that change.
cheers,
