Yes, it's crunchide. It was broken prior to r277259: | crunchide: Correct 64-bit section header offset | | For 64-bit binaries the Elf_Ehdr e_shoff is at offset 40, not 44. | Instead of using an incorrect hardcoded offset, let the compiler | figure it out for us with offsetof(). | | Differential Revision: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D1543 It's not completely clear to me why we did not encounter this before; a comment before the erroneous write states: /* * update the offset of section header table in elf * header if needed. */ so I presume something about the object file created by gcc 4.9 causes this code to be executed, while builds using the in-tree compiler did not. _______________________________________________ freebsd-toolchain@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-toolchain To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-toolchain-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
