Bug ID: 19199
Summary: djgpp: the default linker output file name is a.out,
not a.exe
Product: binutils
Version: unspecified
Status: NEW
Severity: minor
Priority: P2
Component: ld
Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
Reporter: felix.von.s at posteo dot de
Target Milestone: ---
The default linker output file name for the coff-go32-exe format is a.out, not
a.exe, unlike the pei-* formats. This would confuse autoconf configure scripts,
because they rely on the default linker output file name to detect executable
file extension.
This bug doesn't actually manifest in practice, because vanilla gcc compiling
for the djgpp target runs stubify (included in the djgpp CRT and utilities
package) on the output file, which corrects the file extension.
Still, if the dependency on stubify were to be removed, it would create a
problem. And I have just filed a report against gcc suggesting just that.
