Both INIT_SECTION_ASM_OP and HAS_INIT_SECTION are not defined which means it should not be 
building crtstuff.c at all.

gcc/config/arm/t-arm-coff has the line
   EXTRA_MULTILIB_PARTS = crtbegin.o crtend.o
which is bogus.  We don't build these for coff targets.

This looks like some kind of merging or cut&paste error.  The 
gcc-patches message from Richard Earnshaw mentions that this came from 
merging in the new arm/thumb port in Apr 2000.

The problem wasn't noticed at the time because the #error in crstuff.c 
was added in Aug 2001.

The same problem was in the t-xscale-coff file, which Nick Clifton fixed 
  in Dec 2001.

This should be fixed simply by deleting the EXTRA_MULTILIB_PARTS line.

I see that the t-strongarm-pe file has the same line.  I suspect that 
one is also broken in the same way, and needs the same fix.

Richard, would you mind having a look at this? I'm also wondering if the fact that this problem 
hasn't been reported until now indicates that nobody is currently using this target... Thanks,

Draa

I have also encountered this bug, but ignored it, since it didn't impact my
requirements.

arm-coff is still of interest.

Yes, closing since this target has been removed for 4.5.

arm-coff is obsolete with trunk. Can this now be closed out?
