Package: mklibs
Tags: patch
This patch fixes a problem using mklibs for MIPS (discussed at
<http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2008-07/msg00099.html>). The symbol
__gnu_local_gp is defined by the linker for this configuration and so
mklibs should ignore it being undefined. I've only seen the problem for
N32, though it might apply for other ABIs as well. This problem is
entirely independent of the problem of mklibs producing bad binaries for
MIPS (bug 445507), which should probably have been fixed by the binutils
patch <http://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2008-07/msg00350.html>.
