With the latest gcc-4.3.4-branch and gcc-4.3.3 branches checked out as of
2008-02-26, built with "vanilla options" with binutils 2.19.51.20090224
and glibc-2.9.90 of 2009-03-17, under Linux kernel 2.6.29-rc8, on an
originally Gentoo based system but with pretty much everything rebuilt
from latest versions with "vanilla" / GNU configure options, I get
this error under both 4.3.3 and 4.3.4 when linking a large dynamic executable,
when ALL objects are compiled with -fPIC, when GCC attempts to link
in GCC's internal "libdecnumber.a" object :
$ gcc -o $my_executable { .. @ 16MB of objects & shared libs } ... \
-m64 -O -g -march=native -mtune=native -ggdb3
-Wl,-R,/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/4.3.4
/usr/bin/ld:
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/4.3.4//libgcc.a(bid_decimal_globals.o):
TLS transition from R_X86_64_TLSGD to R_X86_64_GOTTPOFF against

/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/4.3.4//libgcc.a(bid_decimal_globals.o):
could not read symbols: Bad value
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
This happens with several different versions of ld(1), but NOT with gcc-4.2.3 .
( with libgcc_s.so.1 being ONLY installed under the
/usr/lib/gcc/$GCC_ARCH/$GCC_VERSION
directories, so I use RPATH, which makes supporting executables
linked with many different versions of libgcc easier
).

gcc version 4.3.4 20090223 (prerelease) (Linux 2.6.29 GCC 4.3.3 JVD 2009-02-24)
Dozens of other executables and packages build just fine with 4.3.4 and 4.3.3 -
but for some reason this large database, X-Windows & GTK application, which
also uses AT&T AST sfio & vmalloc, does not .
While gcc-4.2.3 was configured with:
$ /usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/gcc-bin/4.2.3/gcc -v
Using built-in specs.
Target: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu

Thread model: posix
gcc version 4.2.3
Any ideas anyone ?
This one is driving me round the bend.
Thanks in advance!
