[gnu-sol-discuss] Configuring GCC for Solaris LD

[Tom Riddle]

Hi Folks & Happy New Year

So we're still pounding away here and able to get past the GCC debug symbol relocation issue.  what a pain. :( We had to modify the GNU assembler so that it doesn't try and align .debug_* sections on a 4-byte boundary, everything appears to work ok.  Line numbers, symbols, source display, etc.  

Speaking of our GNU tool chain we're at the point of configuring it for the default useage of solaris ld.  The x86/Sparc GNU tools for OpenSolaris points to the solaris ld and I'm assuming that is done during configuration and building of the tools. 

We've been able to get around that since /uts and /psm has a seperate link step in the makefiles and we could point it elsewhere but it appears the source in /cmd uses just the gcc command line for compile and link and currently our tools point to the GNU ld ie: /opt/polaris/bin/powerpc-unknown-solaris2.11-ld.  Anyway any tips on how to go about this? TIA Tom
