Shouldn't this be fixed within the binutils / buildchain, rather than having patching (all? lots of?) individual packages. Maybe you can forward this to the patch author, asking him for some explanation of this case. > - $(LD) -shared -o $@ $< > + $(CC) -shared -o $@ -nostdlib $< -lgcc > -- Live long and prosper - Harald Welte / [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.gnumonks.org/ ============================================================================ GCS/E/IT d- s-: a-- C+++ UL++++$ P+++ L++++$ E--- W- N++ o?
