Subject: Dynamic Loading on MkLinux (osname=linux,archname=ppc-linux)
X-Git-Url: http://git.shadowcat.co.uk/gitweb/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=925266451136604d403de4bde5daacaa981d18a3;p=p5sagit%2Fp5-mst-13.2.git

Dynamic Loading on MkLinux (osname=linux,archname=ppc-linux)

MkLinux (osname=linux,archname=ppc-linux), which differs slightly from other
linuces, needs special flags passed in order for dynamic loading to work.
Perhaps this should be somehow incorporated into linux.sh or something?  I'd
propose a patch, but this is not my area of expertise at all.

instead of the recommended:
ccdlflags='-rdynamic'

it should be:
ccdlflags='-Wl,-E'

Thanks to Shimpei Yamashita <shimpei@socrates.patnet.caltech.edu> for pointing
this out.
