------- Comment #17 from jakub at gcc dot gnu dot org 2008-12-10 13:30 ------- For #c12, those weren't present in 4.3 libgcj_bc.so, but I don't see why it matters. 4.3 linked ecj1 doesn't need any of those symbols. The reason why it has DT_NEEDED libgcj.so.9 is IMHO that libgcj.la was in ecjx's LDADD, so libtool linked it with -lgcj (and as -Wl,--as-needed -lgcj -Wl,--no-as-needed wasn't used, it was added to DT_NEEDED unconditionally). The fix really is not to have libgcj.la in LDADD for dynamically linked ecj1. I'm just not sure about !ENABLE_SHARED build if USE_LIBGCJ_BC is true, maybe libgcj.la is needed in that case (not sure if libgcj_bc.la has libgcj.la as a dependency in that case).
