Hi!
PR42904 is a bug where, when compiling a windows DLL using -fwhole-program,
the compiler optimises away the entire library body, because there's no
dependency chain related to 'main' to anchor it.
Aren't "shared library" and "whole program" mutually exclusive concepts ?
The mere fact that you are building a library means that it cannot be
the whole program, and because a shared library cannot be determined to
have being used by any fixed program, by definition cannot be "the whole
program".
Or so I'd think.
Kind regards,
