Bug ID: 22291
Summary: GOLD silently produces an nonworking dynamic
executable
Product: binutils
Version: 2.30 (HEAD)
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: gold
Assignee: ccoutant at gmail dot com

shell script to reproduce the problem. Run with either "bfd" or "gold" as an
argument
When linking a dynamic executable that references the start and stop symbols of
an orphan section in a shared library, GOLD will generate unresolvable
relocations. Vis:
$ sh ./reproducer bfd
(for cleanup, run: rm -f -- lib_conftest.so conftest conftest.o)
$ sh ./reproducer.sh gold
./conftest: Symbol `__start___verbose' causes overflow in R_X86_64_32
relocation
./conftest: error while loading shared libraries: unexpected reloc type 0x0b
(for cleanup, run: rm -f -- lib_conftest.so conftest conftest.o)
This is on an x86_64 native system. Other hosts have not been tried but might
have similar problems.
This issue has also been reported as a Fedora bug here:
