When running the testsuite on 3.3 with -fpic or -fPIC I get the following additional error:
FAIL: gcc.dg/asm-names.c (test for excess errors) http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-testresults/2005-01/msg00029.html http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-testresults/2005-01/msg00085.html http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-testresults/2005-01/msg00084.html The error message from the logfile is: /tmp/ccofal7Q.o: In function `_main': /tmp/ccofal7Q.o(.text+0x13): undefined reference to `__GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_' /tmp/ccofal7Q.o: In function `main': /tmp/ccofal7Q.o(.text+0x4a): undefined reference to `__GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_' /tmp/ccofal7Q.o: In function `___main': /tmp/ccofal7Q.o(.text+0x67): undefined reference to `__GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status Note the testcase has changed in 3.4 and 4.0 to mask the error, but the original testcase fails the same way with those newer compilers. I could update the testcase on the 3.3 branch to what it is on mainline if that makes sense. Is there something to fix in the compiler, the testcase, or should the test be bypassed when using -fpic/-fPIC ? -- Summary: Error in gcc.dg/asm-names.c when using -fpic/-fPIC on i686-pc-linux-gnu Product: gcc Version: 3.3.6 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: target AssignedTo: unassigned at gcc dot gnu dot org ReportedBy: ghazi at gcc dot gnu dot org CC: gcc-bugs at gcc dot gnu dot org GCC build triplet: i686-pc-linux-gnu GCC host triplet: i686-pc-linux-gnu GCC target triplet: i686-pc-linux-gnu http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19230
