I suspect binutils has some problem. This might have nothing to do
with the above, but let me tell you what I experienced.
If you think the binutils have a problem, then I think you, or
somebody, will need to resolve that into a case which involves only
the binutils, and does not involve various ways of building egcs.
I know that binutils 2.9.1 has a problem: if you assemble PIC (or pic)
code using the Solaris native assembler, and link the result with the
GNU binutils 2.9.1 linker, then in some cases you will get an error
from the linker. This particular problem has been fixed in the
development sources, and the fix will be in the next release.
I do not know of any problems in which the Solaris native assembler is
used with the Solaris native linker, nor in which the GNU binutils
2.9.1 assembler is used with the GNU binutils 2.9.1 linker. There may
be problems, of course.
