See full explanation here: http://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2009-02/msg00341.html short version: we now use the "alternative" linker script (which merges .rdata into .data unconditionally) by default. Later plan is to incorporate Kai Teitz's pseudo-reloc v2 support. But in either case, the const struct stuff should no longer cause any heartburn. -- Chuck -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
