Re: [MiNT] Binutils 2.18 + GCC 4.2.3



Hello Vincent,

I have just compiled the latest make 3.81 for MiNT.
The compilation is quick and does not require specific patches.
You can find the experimental binary here:
http://vincent.riviere.free.fr/soft/m68k-atari-mint/archives/unsupported/

Could you please try this binary and see if the problem is still here ?

In short, I tried (I actually compiled make 3.81 before this email) and the same problem. I'm actually unsure who is the culprit of the trouble at this point. Here are tests using latest make (which I believe show make is not at fault):

gcc 2.95.3 - binutils 2.18 - Link YES
gcc 4.1.2 - binutils 2.18 - Link NO - ld complains
gcc 4.2.3 - binutils 2.18 - Link NO - g++ complains
gcc 2.95.3 - binutils 2.13 - Link YES
gcc 4.1.2 - binutils 2.13 - Link YES
gcc 4.2.3 - binutils 2.13 - Link NO - g++ complains

That all took a ton of time building natively. When they 'complain' it is the same error as previously reported. Need to find another piece of softwre that has the same issue.

I am updating the tools right now (building a new binutils RPM natively with GCC 2.95.3 and cross building a new native GCC 4.2.3 in Cygwin) and will try again to see if the same still happens.
