Anyone know if there is an update to ld or how to get it? Do the normal Apple software updates include updates to the development toolchain too (xcode?) ???
Is it possible to install gcc/binutils using fink and use them ??? I am assuming not, but just wondered :) So how do I get/install your patch to try out (I'm still new to fink, and OS X for that matter) ? Can I just do a "fink update net-snmp-unified" or is it something more manual ???
