--- Comment #5 from Toon Moene <toon at moene dot org> 2011-05-08 13:00:33 UTC --- The bug does not manifest itself with the default compiler and linker on a recent version of Debian Testing: $ gcc -v Using built-in specs. COLLECT_GCC=gcc COLLECT_LTO_WRAPPER=/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.5.2/lto-wrapper Target: x86_64-linux-gnu Configured with: ../src/configure -v --with-pkgversion='Debian 4.5.2-11' --with-bugurl=file:///usr/share/doc/gcc-4.5/README.Bugs --enable-languages=c,c++,fortran,objc,obj-c++ --prefix=/usr --program-suffix=-4.5 --enable-shared --enable-multiarch --with-multiarch-defaults=x86_64-linux-gnu --enable-linker-build-id --with-system-zlib --libexecdir=/usr/lib --without-included-gettext --enable-threads=posix --with-gxx-include-dir=/usr/include/c++/4.5 --libdir=/usr/lib --enable-nls --enable-clocale=gnu --enable-libstdcxx-debug --enable-libstdcxx-time=yes --enable-plugin --enable-gold --enable-ld=default --with-plugin-ld=ld.gold --enable-objc-gc --with-arch-32=i586 --with-tune=generic --enable-checking=release --build=x86_64-linux-gnu --host=x86_64-linux-gnu --target=x86_64-linux-gnu Thread model: posix gcc version 4.5.2 (Debian 4.5.2-11) $ ld.gold -v GNU gold (GNU Binutils for Debian 2.21.0.20110327) 1.11 $ ld -v GNU ld (GNU Binutils for Debian) 2.21.0.20110327 so perhaps this has been fixed in GCC 4.5.3 and ld 2.21.
