If you re-run configure you'll see it. This is a Solaris server and objcopy is part of Linux binutils, not part of Solaris ( SVR4 UNIX based ). I see here : http://gcc.gnu.org/install/prerequisites.html GNU binutils Necessary in some circumstances, optional in others. See the host/target specific instructions for your platform for the exact requirements. I check here : http://gcc.gnu.org/install/specific.html Where I see no mention of a need for binutils to compile "go". We probably need to update that page. However, having said that I do have : $ /usr/local/bin/gobjcopy --version GNU objcopy (GNU Binutils) 2.23.1 Copyright 2012 Free Software Foundation, Inc. This program is free software; you may redistribute it under the terms of the GNU General Public License version 3 or (at your option) any later version. This program has absolutely no warranty. So it looks like I need a silly environment variable such as OBJCOPY which points to the GNU binutils in /usr/local/bin. Which I otherwise do not use. Dennis
