The current memtest package uses: gcc -c -Wall -march=i486 -Os -fomit-frame-pointer -fno-builtin -ffreestanding -fPIC reloc.c > [...] > ld --warn-constructors --warn-common -static -T memtest_shared.lds -o > memtest_shared head.o reloc.o main.o test.o init.o lib.o patn.o > screen_buffer.o config.o linuxbios.o memsize.o pci.o controller.o random.o > extra.o > __i686.get_pc_thunk.bx: discarded in section > .gnu.linkonce.t.__i686.get_pc_thunk.bx' from reloc.o > > It does build fine with both gcc_3.2.3-9 and gcc_3.4.2-3. hmm, it builds fine for me using the current gcc-3.3 in unstable.
