Hi!
On AIX, when _GLOBAL__* symbols are exported from shared libraries,
and the final executable is linked with runtime linking enabled,
GNU C++ exception handling may break.
Unfortunately, the command to create the list of exported symbols
for AIX is quite complicated at the moment, not only bec
* m4/libtool.m4 (LT_PATH_NM): Detect POSIX-compatible nm for AIX. In
BSD mode, the AIX nm does not tell whether a symbol is weak, need to use
POSIX mode instead.
(_LT_CMD_GLOBAL_SYMBOLS): Support POSIX-compatible nm. Reorder to allow
for platform specific hooks during transformation of global_sym
* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_LINKER_SHLIBS): On AIX, GNU g++ generates
_GLOBAL__* symbols as, amongst others, landing pads for C++ exceptions.
These symbols must not be exported from shared libraries, or exception
handling may break for applications with runtime linking enabled.
