Recently I've noticed that builds were failing with errors like: https://ci.appveyor.com/project/libyal/libfwsi/build/job/7b822r4j4ghfs2m5#L953 /usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/9.2.0/../../../../i686-pc-cygwin/bin/ld: fwsi_test_error.o: in function `fwsi_test_error_sprint': /home/appveyor/libfwsi/tests/fwsi_test_error.c:72: undefined reference to `_imp__libfwsi_error_sprint' https://ci.appveyor.com/project/libyal/libfwsi/build/job/3qnu5pk3lm4u12pe#L960 /home/appveyor/libfwsi/tests/fwsi_test_error.c:72: undefined reference to `__imp_libfwsi_error_sprint' /home/appveyor/libfwsi/tests/fwsi_test_error.c:72:(.text.startup+0x24): relocation truncated to fit: R_X86_64_PC32 against undefined symbol `__imp_libfwsi_error_sprint' Since I did not make significant changes to the project sources I started analyzing the build environment. I was able to reproduce the issues with binutils 2.34-1 on Cygwin 64-bit on a separate Windows 10 installation. When I reverted to binutils 2.31-1 the build issues do NOT surface. I suspect a change or issue with binutils 2.34-1 is causing the build issues. Happy to provide additional details / help troubleshooting where possible. Kind regards, Joachim P.S. I tried searching for duplicate issues on https://sourceware.org/cgi-bin/search.cgi?form=extended&qprev= unfortunately it returns a lot of results and starts with the oldest results first. Small request for the future, consider adding an option to return results in reverse order.
