Actually, looking at configure, passing --with-sysroot is equivalent to --with-sysroot=/sys-root (or so). Passing --with-sysroot defines a sysroot directory, but it also changes the behaviour of ld in three respects: - It allows to use the "--sysroot=<directory>" option when calling ld. - It allows to specify '=/path' type paths to the -L option, where = is replaced by the directory above (or the default one specified at compile time). - what was said in my earlier message.
So it might be better to pass --with-sysroot, so that the default directory will be inexistant, which may avoid some non-understandable behaviour (defaults are sometimes a plague when nobody knows what they are...) > I *always* forget about binutils' configure machinery allowing options to be > passed > down to sub-configures that it doesn't understand itself :( > >> It changes the behavior of ld: >> from "man ld": > <snip> > > Thanks, sounds good then.
