First of all, this is reproduced with following configurations (examples are selected to minimize time to reproduce): - CentOS 7 (x86_64; with GNU libc 2.17) - "make all-sim" with following configurations (for example): - --target=m32c-unknown-elf - --target=rl78-unknown-elf And it was true that my commit (as you pointed out) was the initial bad commit but the real cause was much complex than I expected. The reason I could not initially reproduce the issue was because it required GNU libc <= 2.25 to reproduce. An interesting fact is... standard unistd.h on GNU libc <= 2.25 includes (with __need_getopt macro defined) but it actually includes $(srcdir)/include/getopt.h, not getopt.h in GNU libc. Since my change defined HAVE_DECL_GETOPT to 1 on GNU libc-based environment and declaration of the getopt function is suppressed, causing an error. On GNU libc >= 2.26, unistd.h includes without defining __need_getopt and that's why this error is suppressed on newer GNU libc-based environments. Possible reason why this bug is missed is, there are not so many getopt callers (many calls getopt_long or getopt_long_only, not getopt). True getopt callers on Binutils/GDB/GCC are following: - M32C simulator (affected by my change) - RL78 simulator (affected by my change) - gprofng (getopt declaration not checked by gprofng/configure) ... yes, GCC (entirely) and the most of Binutils components do not depend on getopt function anymore. This fact explains why this bug is not discovered so long. The true fix to this is going to be applied to include/getopt.h (Binutils) to detect this include path on GNU libc <= 2.25. Aside from this, some sim source files need to be changed (to minimize problems even further). I'll submit these patchsets soon.
