------- Additional Comments From jgrimm2 at us dot ibm dot com 2004-10-19 21:25 ------- I see this too. Or rather, I see what Michael is describing. Should there be a new bug for the problem as described by Michael? My test scenario was from desire to build 64-bit biarch compiler that defaults to m64. The system compiler was 32-bit biarch compiler that defaults to m32.
Here's how I had configured: /home/jgrimm/gcc_priv_mline_anoncvs/gcc/configure --prefix=/home/jgrimm/tools/gcc-work --build=powerpc64-linux --host=powerpc64-linux --target=powerpc64-linux --with-cpu=default64 --with-as=/home/jgrimm/tools/binutils/bin/as --with-ld=/home/jgrimm/tools/binutils/bin/ld --enable-threads=\posix --enable-shared --enable-__cxa_atexit --enable-languages=c --enable-biarch Error output: ... stage1/xgcc -Bstage1/ -B/home/jgrimm/tools/gcc-work/powerpc64-linux/bin/ -g -O2 -DIN_GCC -W -Wall -Wwrite-strings -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -fno-common -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -DGENERATOR_FILE -o build/genmodes \ build/genmodes.o build/errors.o ../build-powerpc64-linux/libiberty/libiberty.a /home/jgrimm/tools/binutils/bin/ld: warning: powerpc:common architecture of input file `../build-powerpc64-linux/libiberty/libiberty.a(hashtab.o)' is incompatible with powerpc:common64 output /home/jgrimm/tools/binutils/bin/ld: warning: powerpc:common architecture of input file `../build-powerpc64-linux/libiberty/libiberty.a(xmalloc.o)' is incompatible with powerpc:common64 output /home/jgrimm/tools/binutils/bin/ld: warning: powerpc:common architecture of input file `../build-powerpc64-linux/libiberty/libiberty.a(xstrdup.o)' is incompatible with powerpc:common64 output /home/jgrimm/tools/binutils/bin/ld: warning: powerpc:common architecture of input file `../build-powerpc64-linux/libiberty/libiberty.a(xexit.o)' is incompatible with powerpc:common64 output /home/jgrimm/tools/binutils/bin/ld: can not size stub section: Bad value -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17646
