I checked that it does (at least on arm-linux-genueabi). IIUC the

variant). I would have to look up hppa again.
Yes, my point is exactly that that kind of scheme (
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2009-07/msg00324.html, or equivalent)
must be really adopted, fixing only arm-linux isn't enough.

In http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2009-07/msg00733.html I wrote that this scheme requires fixing libtool; I never got feedback from the libtool maintainers. In http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2009-09/msg00592.html Jakub and Alexandre did "agree that the linker script for targets that need it is probably easier".


In other
terms, 40134 still blocks 40133, and we cannot fix the latter until the
former is really fully fixed for *all* the affected targets. By the way,
that's why, sorry, I disregarded your ping in the first place, I was
pretty sure it wasn't time yet...

So it looks like 40134 is fixed at least for all *-linux targets (I accidentally dropped the patch for parisc, now testing again). How to proceed with this for linux targets?
