Can you try this, please?

binutils-2.16.92 build failures, Linux X PPC, SPARC.

[Don Lindsay]

There was an appeal for people to testdrive the 2.17 RC.
So, this is a summary of some successes and failures.

I merged gcc-4.1.0 on top of binutils-2.16.92 on top of newlib-1.14.0,
using cpio.

i686-pc-linux-gnu bootstrapped fine, and a cross to mips64-elf went OK.
But a cross to powerpc-eabi died in <buildarea>/bfd with:

         /bin/sh ./libtool --mode=compile gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I.
                 <etc..> -Wall  <etc..>
                 -Werror -g -O2 -c -o coff-rs6000.lo $src/bfd/coff-rs6000.c
         cc1: warnings being treated as errors
         In function 'xcoff_write_archive_contents_old':
                 :2086: warning: value computed is not used


I didn't have this problem with binutils-2.16.1. As per the suggestion
in /bfd/ChangeLog-2005, I added --disable-werror to my configure
command. So the next try got further:
 	[Condensing <build area> to $b, <install area> to $i, and
 	 neatening a bit]

I punted by adding --disable-libssp to my configure command. The linux 
cross powerpc-eabi then succeeded.

I ran the same script on Solaris 8, bootstrapping from a GCC 3.4.3 instead 
of /usr/bin/gcc. The bootstrap failed with:

        /bin/ksh $src/gcc/mkconfig.sh tconfig.h

                 ./as: error: $b/gcc/.libs/as-new does not exist
                 This script is just a wrapper for as-new.
                 See the libtool documentation for more information.

Which is as far as I've got. Logs and scripts on request.

I've seen this with gcc-4.1 too.

Also the cross build libssp problems, but this isn't a binutils problem.

This also doesn't look like a binutils problem, but rather that the gcc
build can't find an as yet uninstalled gas.

I'll apply the following to mainline and 2.17 branch.

Oh, now I know what's going on - this must be a combined tree
consequence of the new gcc/as handling.  Might want to report it to
gcc's bugzilla.

Hi Andreas,

This looks pretty clearly correct; could you commit it?

Did this ever get resolved (separate from the other SPARC build failure
in this thread)?

Don't think so, no.  But I'm surprised nobody else saw it.

Can you reproduce it?  If I have to, I'll go try it myself...

I cannot easily test it right now.  If you can, please go ahead.

And can you please also commit it to the 2.17 branch.

Sorry, I'm not going to follow up on this any further; you can if you
need to.  I can't see any reason for it.  Configuring with an absolute
path will probably work around the libtool issue if it persists;
probably libiberty/pic is missing for some reason.  Working around it
might create non-PIC shared libs.
