Comment(by kgardas):
I'm currently investigating a possible simple fix of using -mimpure-text
as a gcc argument on solaris. This will force gcc not to pass -z text
argument to linker which causes the issue. On the other hand -z text
provides nice error output, which might not be error if we use -z
textwarn. Unfortunately -z textwarn does not switch -z text off, but gcc
fails with a complain that both options are in conflict. So the best for
us would to use use -mimpure-text -W,-z -W,textwarn as a gcc parameters on
Solaris -- at least on x86 to get the best of both worlds: linking not
failing on relocations yet providing warnings about them.
Anyway, I'm still testing the idea...
