Subject: BFD_ASSERT failure in elf32-mips.c with possible fix
Date: Fri, 09 Aug 1996 06:46:00 -0000
Message-id: <199608091345.GAA14227@neteng.engr.sgi.com>
X-SW-Source: 1996/msg00075.html

The following c-torture case:

extern int abort();
typedef int (*frob)();
frob f[] = {abort};
main()
{
  exit(0);
}

Caused GNU ld to fail the assertion on line 5214 in
mips_elf_adjust_dynamic_symbol  The following diff make
the problem go away for me, but the fix may not be correct.
