Solaris 7 /bin/ksh segfault with 1.5.22

2006-05-24 Thread Joe Orton

-static-libgcc link flag and shared objects

2006-02-17 Thread Joe Orton
We had an Apache user complain that -static-libgcc was not passed through to the linker on Solaris if passed on the --mode=link line, when linking a shared object; would this be considered a libtool bug? http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=38195 Regards, joe ___

FreeBSD libtool15 port warning

2005-01-17 Thread Joe Orton
Just a FYI, this is a particularly bad "packager broke libtool" issue: the libtool15 package in the FreeBSD ports collection does not install the .la script in --mode=install! Please join my petition to have them fix it: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=76363 http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/

Static convenience libraries seem to behave slightly differently when linked into programs from when into a library: when linked into a library, they really do behave as an "an alias to a set of object files and dependency libraries", as libtool passes -Wl,--whole-archive around the .a file passed
