------- Comment #2 from mikpe at it dot uu dot se 2010-07-24 13:22 ------- The build on some targets including powerpc is supposed to create libgcc_s.so as a linker script that inputs BOTH the real shared libgcc_s.so and the static libgcc.a, as some symbols are only defined in the static libgcc. Please make sure that you're preserving this linker script when installing gcc.
If you want to backport PR41175 to 4.4 then you also need to backport config.gcc changes related to the powerpc linker script from r151568. (ARM has the same issue. No I'm not responsible for this misdesign.) -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=45053
