           Summary: binutils 2.21.51.0.3 and .4 break building (e)glibc on
                    x86_64-linux
           Product: binutils
           Version: 2.22 (HEAD)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: critical
          Priority: P2
         Component: ld
        AssignedTo: address@hidden
        ReportedBy: address@hidden


Trying to build the (e)glibc 2.12.2 on an x86_64-linux box with gcc 4.5.2 and
binutils 2.21.51.0.3 and .4 results in (build directory =
/usr/src/ark/BUILD/eglibc-2.12/libc/build-x86_64-linux):

Taking out enforcing the use of the newly built libs:

CPP='gcc -E -x c-header'
/usr/src/ark/BUILD/eglibc-2.12/libc/build-x86_64-linux/sunrpc/rpcgen -Y
../scripts -c rpcsvc/bootparam_prot.x -o
/usr/src/ark/BUILD/eglibc-2.12/libc/build-x86_64-linux/sunrpc/xbootparam_prot.T
and even
CPP='gcc -E -x c-header'
/usr/src/ark/BUILD/eglibc-2.12/libc/build-x86_64-linux/elf/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2
/usr/src/ark/BUILD/eglibc-2.12/libc/build-x86_64-linux/sunrpc/rpcgen -Y
../scripts -c rpcsvc/bootparam_prot.x -o
/usr/src/ark/BUILD/eglibc-2.12/libc/build-x86_64-linux/sunrpc/xbootparam_prot.T
and
CPP='gcc -E -x c-header'   
/usr/src/ark/BUILD/eglibc-2.12/libc/build-x86_64-linux/elf/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2
--library-path
/usr/src/ark/BUILD/eglibc-2.12/libc/build-x86_64-linux/math:/usr/src/ark/BUILD/eglibc-2.12/libc/build-x86_64-linux/elf:/usr/src/ark/BUILD/eglibc-2.12/libc/build-x86_64-linux/dlfcn:/usr/src/ark/BUILD/eglibc-2.12/libc/build-x86_64-linux/nss:/usr/src/ark/BUILD/eglibc-2.12/libc/build-x86_64-linux/nis:/usr/src/ark/BUILD/eglibc-2.12/libc/build-x86_64-linux/rt:/usr/src/ark/BUILD/eglibc-2.12/libc/build-x86_64-linux/resolv:/usr/src/ark/BUILD/eglibc-2.12/libc/build-x86_64-linux/crypt:/usr/src/ark/BUILD/eglibc-2.12/libc/build-x86_64-linux/nptl
/usr/src/ark/BUILD/eglibc-2.12/libc/build-x86_64-linux/sunrpc/rpcgen -Y
../scripts -c rpcsvc/bootparam_prot.x -o
/usr/src/ark/BUILD/eglibc-2.12/libc/build-x86_64-linux/sunrpc/xbootparam_prot.T

(the latter just has /usr/src/ark/BUILD/eglibc-2.12/libc/build-x86_64-linux
removed from the --library-path) all succeed, so the problem is with the newly
built libc.

Also, something simple like
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/src/ark/BUILD/eglibc-2.12/libc/build-x86_64-linux/libc.so
/bin/true

segfaults, so chances are something odd is going on in the startup code.

The backtrace looks like ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 is trying to jump straight at
(void*)-1

It works with binutils 2.21.51.0.2.
