I compiled a binutils for a custom target, and specified "./configure
--prefix=foo --exec_prefix=arch/foo" at the top level binutils directory.
During the build, it went into the "ld" directory and did a standard
"./configure".
The compiled "ld" has a default search path of /lib:/usr/lib:/usr/local/lib, but
not my exec_prefix/lib. The behavior should be that ld searches
${exec_prefix}/lib:/lib:/usr/lib:/usr/local/lib in that order.
This can be done easily because ld's configure has a --with-lib-path option -
but the toplevel binutils does not have any matching option nor does it
propagate any such thing down.
Can someone add --with-ld-lib-path to binutils' ./configure script, such that it
will push down "--with-ld-path" to the lower level ld? Alternatively, can ld be
modified to put ${exec_prefix}/lib in front of the default libs when compiling,
if $exec_prefix is set?
Thanks,
Russ Fink
