While checking my TLS LD patch, I noticed that unlike on Solaris
10/x86, the @tlsldmplt configure test was failing on Solaris 11/x86 with
Sun ld. This went unnoticed since the Solaris 11 ld also supports the
TLS LD code sequence expected by GNU ld.
The failure happens because S11 ld is pickier than its S10 counterpart:
ld: fatal: symbol 'tls_ld' in file tlsldmplt.o (STT_TLS), is defined in a
non-SHF_TLS section
I've quieted the error by adapting the testcase to work with both
versions. It requires the infrastructure laid by my previous patch:
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2014-03/msg00225.html
I didn't adapt it to gas/gld (enforcing 32-bit assembly/linking) since
neither supports @tlsldmplt yet.
Bootstrapped without regressions on i386-pc-solaris2.1[01] and
x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, will commit once the build part of the
previous patch has been approved.
Thanks.
