Re: Odd behaviour with latest CVS

O.K. I have managed to do some more testing on the bundle loading
problem I had. Firstly Adams suggestions...

That gives:

bash-2.05b$ openapp MesaView.app --GNU-Debug=NSBundle

Which seems to be linking in the correct objects.

  GNUstep bundle directory is /usr/local/GNUstep/System/Libraries
  Executable is in shared_obj/ix86/freebsd/gnu-gnu-gnu/nsbundle

AS other people have claimed that this works under FreeBSD fine then I went
off to set up a completelyseparate system to do testing on. The conclusion
seems to be that its something which has changed between 4.6.2 and the
latest 4.7 - and it also seems to be the compiler. Stuff I have
recompiled under 4.7 fails to link, whereas stuff under 4.6 is fine (and runs
on 4.7 it seems).

I woulkd be happier if someone else could confirm these findings - this
is certainly the case on the machines I have been using, but someone else
out there was running a 4.6 FreeBSD machine with GNUstep wernt they ?

I'm at a bit of a loss as to where to go from here debugging wise though.

-bat.
