Now to add the twist to this tail. During testing I've personally seen
some wierd stuff with GCC 4.0.1, Glibc 2.3.5, and Binutils 2.16.1.
When I built an x86 to x86 system following the book exactly, I get to
binutils and I would get a Malformed Archive on all binutils static
libraries. Repeated this 2 more times to make sure I didn't miss anything.
Then on my other system, a x86 to Sparc64, everything built ok. Which
got me to think, he maybe it's an Glibc NPTL thing.
So last night I built a complete x86 to x86 system, using linuxthreads,
and it built correctly. Using the same instructions as the NPTL, just
utilizing linuxthreads.
Interesting!! So either GCC is not compiling Glibc with NPTL correctly,
or we have a GCC 4.0.1 issue.
Matt Darcy is trying the Currently GLIBC snapshot. I'm going to test the
Fedora Core 4 patch for Glibc to see what happens.
