-nostdlib is a linker option, not a compiler option. The compiler would still emit references to __stack_chk_fail. What you probably mean is -ffreestanding, but it doesn't prevent references to __stack_chk_fail either, and it even produces TLS references, see http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=29838 Samuel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-gcc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
