Bug #: 56057 Summary: libbacktrace STILL doesn't honor --disable-werror Classification: Unclassified Product: gcc Version: 4.8.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: other AssignedTo: unassig...@gcc.gnu.org ReportedBy: lailavrazda1...@gmail.com libbacktrace is not honoring --disable-werror and using -fPIC, causing a warning (which is promoted to an error) when building a native compiler for x86_64-w64-mingw32. This happens with revision 195330, the latest, as of this writing. Errors below: libtool: compile: x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc -L/root/win64-build/native/x86_64-w64-mingw32/lib -L/root/win64-build/native/mingw/lib -isystem /root/win64-build/native/x86_64-w64-mingw32/include -isystem /root/win64-build/native/mingw/include -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I../../../gcc-4.8.0/libbacktrace -I ../../../gcc-4.8.0/libbacktrace/../include -I ../../../gcc-4.8.0/libbacktrace/../libgcc -I ../libgcc -funwind-tables -frandom-seed=dwarf.lo -W -Wall -Wwrite-strings -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -Wold-style-definition -Wmissing-format-attribute -Wcast-qual -Werror -fPIC -g -O2 -c ../../../gcc-4.8.0/libbacktrace/dwarf.c -o dwarf.o ../../../gcc-4.8.0/libbacktrace/dwarf.c:1:0: error: -fPIC ignored for target (all code is position independent) [-Werror] /* dwarf.c -- Get file/line information from DWARF for backtraces. ^ cc1: all warnings being treated as errors make[3]: *** [dwarf.lo] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/root/win64-build/src/gcc-build/x86_64-w64-mingw32/libbacktrace' make[2]: *** [all] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory `/root/win64-build/src/gcc-build/x86_64-w64-mingw32/libbacktrace' make[1]: *** [all-target-libbacktrace] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/win64-build/src/gcc-build' make: *** [all] Error 2
