"ar s foo.a" works just fine as documented in the info page.

I agree.

I'm disturbed that there's any evidence that people were relying on the
old behavior, but it just seems wrong:

This:

>   _START = DEFINED(_START) ? _START : 0x900;

in combination with --defsym _START=... should result in a defined
_START.  IMO, the most logical interpretation of --defsym is that the
linker operate "as if" such definitions occurred at the top of the
linker script, in the order they appeared on the command line, so that
the script is actually:

  _START = 0x8000;
  _START = DEFINED(_START) ? _START : 0x900;

And, in that case, of course, _START is defined.

Hi Michail,

  Please could you upload the file that demonstrates this problem.  Sending it
as an attachment does not work. :-(

Cheers

Hi Christopher,

  This was just a typo in the ar --help output.  There is no 's' command, only
an 's' modifier.  I have checked in the uploaded patch to take care of this
issue.

Cheers
  Nick

Hi Mark,

  I have uploaded a possible patch to LD for this problem.  I assume that a
similar patch to GOLD will also be possible, but I have not looked into this
yet.  

  In the course of checking the patch I found one linker testcase that broke:
default-script2.  Looking at the test, it seems to me that the patched linker
is actually correct in this instance.  The test uses a linker script that looks
like this:

  _START = DEFINED(_START) ? _START : 0x900;
  SECTIONS
  {
. = _START;
.text : {*(.text)}
/DISCARD/ : {*(*)}
  }

It then checks to see that the .text symbol has been given an address of
0x9000 despite the fact that "-defsym _START=0x800" has been passed on
the command line.  The patched linker sets the address to 0x8000, which I
think is right.

  Does anyone have any comments before I look at creating a patch for GOLD ?

Cheers
  Nick
