Dear all,
I posted previously on the ports mailing list about problems that were
showing up with net/freeradius when built with gcc 4.2 on 6.x and on 7.x
amd64.
At that time I was wondering if there was an arcane problem in the toolchain,
maybe in libtool. In fact, the solution appears to be straightforward, and
not libtool's fault. radiusd was being built -pie, which was the default from
upstream. Patching the upstream Makefile.in to remove -pie seems to resolve
both problems. Thanks to Sean McNeil for the report.
The moral of the story appears to be "don't use -pie with libtool". I have no
idea why the upstream Makefile.in is like this; I will chase it with the
FreeRADIUS developers.
I've just submitted ports/118425
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=118425
which should fix that, as well as chasing a heimdal shared library version
bump.
I believe those two fixes may qualify for committing during the current ports
freeze; I've alerted portmgr@ separately.
I've also incorporated a couple of other outstanding fixes, though I realise
that they may well not qualify to be committed alongside the others because
of the ports freeze.
HMMMM... A seemingly silimar issue came up a while back. It was supposed
to have been fixed -

I wonder if perhaps there is something more that needs to be done.
