As I still have crtfiles with .ctor with gcc 4.3 the end result does not
"conform to gABI"

So what is the point of the exercise?

 I have no problems with GCC 4.1
>to 4.6.

I have the issue that new binutils can no longer be used to link old glibc. And
whatelse unknown for our ISVs. So I have to disable this "feature" in glibc.
Which forces me to disable is also in gcc 4.7 as I lost the feature
Of correctly handling mixed prioritized .ctor
And .init_array sections.

The situation is highly undesirable to me
And I question the value of this feature if
The resulting object does not conform to gABI
