Hi while compiling trolltechs qt/xfree library with gcc3 (3.2x) on cygwin I recognized, that the auto-import stuff in combination of recent ld does not work in case of const variables in a dll when using direct linking to a dll, because gcc put those variables into a readonly, that means the .text section.
The patch and a testcase is appended. A documentation could be found in the patch file. A binary update (only containing ld) could be found here: http://kde-cygwin.sourceforge.net/snapshots/ld-gcc3-const-var-patch.tar.bz2 Cheers Ralf
