[Bug target/19229] New: Error in gcc.dg/asm-names.c when using -fpic/-fPIC on i686-pc-linux-gnu

[ghazi at gcc dot gnu dot org]

When running the testsuite on 3.3 with -fpic or -fPIC I get the following 
additional error:

FAIL: gcc.dg/asm-names.c (test for excess errors)

http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-testresults/2005-01/msg00029.html
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-testresults/2005-01/msg00085.html
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-testresults/2005-01/msg00084.html

The error message from the logfile is:

/tmp/ccofal7Q.o: In function `_main':
/tmp/ccofal7Q.o(.text+0x13): undefined reference to `__GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_'
/tmp/ccofal7Q.o: In function `main':
/tmp/ccofal7Q.o(.text+0x4a): undefined reference to `__GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_'
/tmp/ccofal7Q.o: In function `___main':
/tmp/ccofal7Q.o(.text+0x67): undefined reference to `__GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

Note the testcase has changed in 3.4 and 4.0 to mask the error, but the 
original testcase fails the same way with those newer compilers.  I could 
update the testcase on the 3.3 branch to what it is on mainline if that makes 
sense.

Is there something to fix in the compiler, the testcase, or should the test be 
bypassed when using -fpic/-fPIC ?

Hmm, this looks more like a binutils bug rather than anything else.

Not really.  Gcc and binutils must agree on what leading underscore convention
to use.  On normal ELF systems, we're forcing them to disagree for this test case
so it's not really surprising that we run into problems.

I think the revised test case in 3.4/4.0 is definitely More Correct.

Okay thanks, I've backported the testcase to 3.3.
