Hey, I've fixed most of the other architectures on ocaml 4.03.0, unfortunately armhf is still failing. It looks PIE related: https://buildd.debian.org/status/logs.php?pkg=ocaml&arch=armhf Running tests from 'tests/asmcomp' ... make arch codegen make tests ... testing 'fib': => passed ... testing 'tak': => passed ... testing 'quicksort': => passed ... testing 'quicksort2':/usr/bin/ld: quicksort2.o: relocation R_ARM_THM_MOVW_ABS_NC against `cmp' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC quicksort2.o: error adding symbols: Bad value collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status => failed ... testing 'soli':/usr/bin/ld: soli.o: relocation R_ARM_THM_MOVW_ABS_NC against `a local symbol' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC soli.o: error adding symbols: Bad value collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status => failed ... testing 'arith':/usr/bin/ld: arith.o: relocation R_ARM_THM_MOVW_ABS_NC against `D' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC arith.o: error adding symbols: Bad value collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status => failed ... testing 'checkbound': => passed ... testing 'tagged-fib': => passed ... testing 'tagged-integr':/usr/bin/ld: tagged-integr.o: relocation R_ARM_THM_MOVW_ABS_NC against `a local symbol' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC tagged-integr.o: error adding symbols: Bad value collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status => failed ... testing 'tagged-quicksort': => passed ... testing 'tagged-tak': => passed ... testing 'optargs': => passed ... testing 'staticalloc': => passed Help with this would be appreciated, I don't really know OCaml that well. After we do this, we will need to calculate which reverse-dependencies need to be rebuilt. I don't know the right query to input into ben(1), help on that would also be appreciated. Also it still requires 4.02.3 so I would have to temporarily downgrade my system ocaml and hope my opam system switch doesn't mess up in the meantime...
