Well the version number is cvs20080103-4, which makes me think it's not
recent enough for the patch to already be there. I would think the patch
itself would just work, but I haven't built and tested it (yet).
Are you working on it, or should I give it a go?
Please give it a go. I'm still working on classifying bugs and tracking
some other low hanging fruit.
Well, if shoehorning a three line patch of Roman's into our binutils isn't
low hanging ...
I looked at the source and the only piece of the patch that'll need
tweaking is the changelog bit. Built fine, binaries are on
http://people.debian.org/~schmitz/m68k/, please test!
James, Doko: This is the patch I'm currently testing, relative to
binutils-2.18.1~cvs20080103. It built ok on hobbes overnight.
According to Joseph Myers <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, the patch will fix a
number of m68k build errors related to nonrepresentable sections when
using -fpie on m68k. The patch is included in binutils CVS since
2008-03-06. See Stephen's bug of the day #478583 ...
Do you want to incorporate this in a future release, or will a NMU be
accepted?
Cheers,
Michael
