Darwin issue?

2007-05-24 Thread Charles Wilson
Gcc just imported libtool from CVS HEAD today (well, actually, from CVS 
HEAD as of 2007-03-18, but who's counting?).  Almost immediately, there 
was a bug report from a Darwin user and a patch for ltmain.sh.


Could somebody with more knowledge about Darwin than me ( == 0.01 ) 
pleas take a look a this thread:


http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2007-05/msg01644.html

It has something to do with old darwin gcc wanting ${wl} while newer (as 
in, in-gcc-build-tree) ones do not. (?)

Thanks,
I am following it up. Should be harmless to remove ${wl} (and support
for xlc while we are at it), but I am hoping to find out how it fails,
maybe we can keep xlc support for older macs, and have a working
solution for gcc.
