OSG version 2.8.1 had some problems in armel due to a bug in GCC (IIRC, the linker could not find some intrinsic functions for atomic operations), that is why I sent a patch to Loïc in order to use the workaround available at that time: The original bug: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=529091 The GCC bug in Debian: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=530388 The upstream GCC bug: http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=40134 According to the last link, the bug is solved in GCC 4.4, so, can you try to remove the extra linker options for armel? Maybe they are doing more harm than good now. They are in the debian/rules file, under a comment with my name. I can also test this with qemu if it is more convenient for you.
