While starting to develop the patch for Solaris PIE support, the gcc.dg/pie-link.c test succeeded at a point when it shouldn't have, i.e. before I had PIC crt files. In its current form, the test doesn't test what it's supposed to test, namely successfully linking position independent executables, because it compiles with -fpie, but links as a regular executable. The test was added here
2007-06-01 Geoffrey Keating <geo...@apple.com> * gcc.dg/pie-link.c: New test. https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2007-06/msg00070.html -pie doesn't make a difference on Darwin, but very much so on Linux and Solaris, where it is necessary for PIE creation. Fixed thus, tested on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu and *-*-solaris2.12 with my upcoming PIE patch. Ok for mainline and gcc-5 branch?
