RE: Suspected bug in binutils / ld (using ver 2.22).

[Simon B]

Hi Alan,

Really (I know I had it doing it :-) but I made mistake in my copying from one screen to another. The configure is --with-sysroot not --sysroot.

Here is the exact command I used to configure it:

../binutils-2.22/configure --prefix=/usr --enable-shared --with-sysroot=

That is the exact command I was using (I double-checked my script -- and playing with it now, the = is optional).

Sorry for the confusion, my fault of course -- I blame lack of caffeine and sleep trouble-shooting this bug :-).

Added the list back to the CC chain so all can witness my mistake -- uh, see the correction ;-).

- Simon.
