It looks like acl2, axiom, and maxima all ran into this problem a little more than 5 years ago. To move this forward: - does it still happen today with binutils from sid or experimental? - if so, could you try git clone git://sources.redhat.com/git/binutils.git cd binutils ./configure --prefix=$HOME/opt/binutils; # or whereever make make install LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$HOME/opt/binutils/lib export LD_LIBRARY_PATH PATH=$HOME/opt/binutils/bin:$PATH cp -o big-binary.stripped big-binary to see if the latest upstream version has the same problem? - if so, could you file a report at http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/ and send us the bug number? Alternatively, I'd be happy to look into this given access to a powerpc machine to test on.
