I was recompiling the linux kernel on a mips ip32 system (an SGI O2) whith only
on change in config. I changed CONFIG_BUILD_ELF64 to 'n'.
Then, while rebuilding with
sgi:~# gcc -v
Using built-in specs.
Target: mips-linux-gnu
Configured with: ../src/configure -v
--enable-languages=c,c++,fortran,objc,obj-c++,treelang --prefix=/usr
--enable-shared --with-system-zlib --libexecdir=/usr/lib
--without-included-gettext --enable-threads=posix --enable-nls
--program-suffix=-4.1 --enable-__cxa_atexit --enable-clocale=gnu
--enable-libstdcxx-debug --enable-mpfr --disable-libssp
--enable-checking=release mips-linux-gnu
Thread model: posix
gcc version 4.1.2 20061115 (prerelease) (Debian 4.1.1-21)
I got this error:

When I deactivated CONFIG_BUILD_ELF64 I read that it does not work with recent
binutils. My binutils version is 2.17.
The only change due to this config option in Makefile seems to be:
ifdef CONFIG_BUILD_ELF64
cflags-y += $(call cc-option,-mno-explicit-relocs)
else
cflags-y += $(call cc-option,-msym32)
endif
Please note that if I compile the kernel with CONFIG_BUILD_ELF64=y then gcc
does not crash.
