[Bug c++/17348] New: Can't link 64-bit executable on Solaris 8

[work at paul dot dubuc dot org]

Using g++ 3.3.1 (same results with 3.3.4) and binutils 2.14:

Configured with: ../gcc-3.3.1/configure --prefix=/vol/gnu/gcc-3.3.1
--enable-shared --enable-threads --enable-cpp --enable-languages=c++
--with-gnu-as --with-as=/vol/gnu/gcc-3.3.1/bin/as --with-gnu-ld
--with-ld=/vol/gnu/gcc-3.3.1/bin/ld --host=sparc-sun-solaris2.8
Thread model: posix
gcc version 3.3.1

we get many errors like the following when trying to  link an executable (all
libraries and .o files have been built 64-bit (-m64 option):

Are you sure that binutils 2.14 is being used as there was a ld bug which had the same symptom, see 
PR 7506.  Also most likely this is not a GCC bug at all but a binutils one.

Thanks, Andrew.  You are right.  It's apprently a binutils bug.  I tried the
latest snapshot of binutils (040909) and the problem goes away.  I couldn't use
the latest release (2.15) because it has a core dump problem on Solaris 8.

Binutils 2.15 release is indeed broken on the platform; however binutils 2.15
CVS should work fine.
