[Bug ld/3307] New: bad relocation section name `'

[jmbnyc at gmail dot com]

I have been encountering the following problem for several weeks. I compile and
create few c++ shared libraries (can happen with just one, so it has nothing to
do with the number). I then attempt to link a program and I get the following
type of  segv during the link step:

collect2: ld terminated with signal 11 [Segmentation fault]
/usr/bin/ld: build/x86-64.linux/gcc64/cc-g/subscribeClient.o: bad relocation
section name `'

It happens with both -O2 and -g compiled code (although it is a bit more
frequent with -g code). In addition, usually if it happens with -O2 code then it
will work fine when I compiled with -g (or vice-versa). 

I have produced a test case, but I don't see a way to attach it here (first time
reporting a bug here - sorry if I am missing the obvious, but I did read the
'reporting guidelines' and did not see anything there either). I'm happy to
attach the test case in an email so that someone can see the problem first hand.
