Thanks for all the upstream fixes!
Appreciated. It took a fair bit of time last weekend. As a result, we
got a bit of help in
fixing a couple more bugs :-)
I would like to know if the gentoo folks would consider fixing the
__gmon_start__ bug:
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19170
There is some risk in applying the patch as rebuilding a library package
may break other
packages which depend on the library. This could break critical tools
such as binutils and
gcc. In which case, some manual intervention may be needed. However,
the transition
on Debian went fairly smoothly. As a result, we no longer have the
external symbol
__gmon_start exposed and we have correct library dependencies.
The issues with _init referred to in the BZ report are fixed. It is now
PIC; and PIE applications
work on hppa thanks to Alan Modra.
Although not ideal, we could keep the __gmon_start__ patch in Debian.
