Bug#364095: binutils: problems linking objects compiled with g++-3.3

[Jason Kraftcheck]

Package: binutils
Version: 2.16.1cvs20060117-1
Severity: important


For the same source in all three cases: 
  compiled w/ g++-4.0 and linked with current binutils - OK
  compiled w/ g++-3.3 and linked with current bintuils - FAIL
  compiled w/ g++-3.3 and linked with older binutils - OK

I get errors like the following:
