Just to revive this ...

In practice, it's often the other way round: static linking with
libgcc on GNU/Linux causes more problems than it solves. If we're not
linking statically with libgcc now, it would be risky to start doing
so again.

Just curious why we sometimes use:
-Xlinker option
and other times
-Wl,option
is there any practical difference? Do all gcc versions recognize both forms?
Thanks,

I happened to notice in jdk/make/common/shared/Sanity.gmk:
sane-gcc-compiler:
ifeq ($(PLATFORM), solaris)
ifndef OPENJDK
@if [ -r $(GCC_COMPILER_PATH) ]; then \
fi
endif
ifeq ($(PLATFORM), linux)
Looks to me like there's a misplaced endif there.
