Either way, we will know what to do.
Thanks for the tip. We had one of the GCC developers look at the problem (Eric Botcazou), and he found out that gcc-3.4.x is creating some additional R/W ELF sections that the IRIX linker is not combining (gcc-3.3.x created one R/W and one R/O ELF section). He plans to look into this further. Hopefully we'll have a solution soon. -- albert chin ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
