Greetings! gcl has traditionally used some flavor of -mlongcalls switch to gcc to get around the following build failures:
============================================================================= alpha: ============================================================================= ;; Loading boot.lisp ;; Compiling ../lsp/gcl_listlib.lsp. Warning: NTH-VALUE is being redefined. ;; End of Pass 1. ;; End of Pass 2. ;; OPTIMIZE levels: Safety=0 (No runtime error checking), Space=0, Speed=0, (Debug quality ignored) ;; Finished compiling ../lsp/gcl_listlib.o. ;; Loading /build/buildd/gclcvs-2.7.0/lsp/gcl_listlib.o reloc for .text is overflowing Error: ERROR "Cannot get relocated section contents " Signalled by LOAD1. ERROR "Cannot get relocated section contents " ============================================================================= ppc: ============================================================================= ;; Compiling ../cmpnew/gcl_cmptop.lsp. ;; End of Pass 1. ;; End of Pass 2. ;; OPTIMIZE levels: Safety=0 (No runtime error checking), Space=0, Speed=0, (Debug quality ignored) ;; Finished compiling ../cmpnew/gcl_cmptop.o. ;; Loading /build/buildd/gclcvs-2.7.0/cmpnew/gcl_cmptop.o reloc for _mcount is overflowing Error: ERROR "Cannot get relocated section contents " Signalled by LOAD1. ERROR "Cannot get relocated section contents " ============================================================================= -mlongcall used on ppc, didn't think alpha required anything special in this regard. Is there a reliable way I can get full word sized relocs out of gcc on all platforms?
