mspgcc doesn't do this intentionally. AFAIK, the only thing the patches do about pic is disable it (with a warning) if it's passed to the gcc driver. I may not have added some feature to the host config description that would be required to use fpic when building the compiler itself. Most of the host config side is simply grown from what the AVR port used many years ago, and I didn't try to go beyond what was there. > I've tried latest 8 and 9 releases (8.2 release and 9.0 release). > But wait a couple of days, I hope, I'll resolve it with other > cross-gcc maintainers, as it could be FreeBSD specific (and > ports-specific) problem :) I suspect that's going to be part of it. I had to check a build under OpenBSD once, and though it did eventually reveal a bug in binutils it was pretty painful to bring up and outfit with the build tools, so I'm happy to wait until you've had a chance to look into it more. > Thank you for you help, anyway!
