[Bug ld/1540] New: internal error in elf_i386_copy_indirect_symbol() when linking Qt program

[skunk at iskunk dot org]

The system is barebones Debian woody with a locally-built GCC 4.0.2 (i.e.   
"tg-g++"). The Qt library is built with tg-g++. This error first came up with  
the system's bundled linker (binutils 2.12.90.0.1), but continued to do so  
after I installed 2.16.1.

----(end)----   
   
Not all links fail in this way; only those linking against Qt, and even then   
only the larger programs. (A small "hello world" Qt program linked correctly.)  
 
  
tg-g++ was configured with --enable-version-specific-runtime-libs, and if I   
give it "-v", and run the collect2 command with -lgcc and -lstdc++ replaced by  
 
absolute paths to the static libraries under /opt/tg/lib/gcc/..., then nothing  
 
changes. (That is, tg-g++ is not pulling these in from /usr/lib/.)  
  
FYI: This system runs Debian woody in order to build binaries that do not  
depend on glibc symbols newer than 2.2.4; upgrading it really isn't an option.
