[PATCH] omit -lcrt1.10.6.o and pass -no_new_main with -pg on darwin >= 10.8


   The attached patch limits the linkage of -lcrt1.10.6.o to darwin10 and darwin11
since its usage is deprecated in the 10.8sdk. The patch also solves radr://11491405,
"-pg broken for -mmacosx-version-min=10.8"...

19-May-2012 11:10 PM Jack Howarth:
Summary: The default  -mmacosx-version-min=10.8 under Xcode 4.4 breaks a number of FSF gcc tests which rely on -pg. such as...

FAIL: gcc.dg/nest.c execution test
FAIL: gcc.dg/nested-func-4.c execution test

Steps to Reproduce:
The attached compressed archive for xcodebug_pg_10.8.tar.bz2 contains the files from compiling these test cases with...

gcc-fsf-4.7 /sw/src/fink.build/gcc47-4.7.1-1000/gcc-4.7-20120518/gcc/testsuite/gcc.dg/nest.c --save-temps -v  -O2 -pg -lm -m32 -o ./nest.exe

and

gcc-fsf-4.7 /sw/src/fink.build/gcc47-4.7.1-1000/gcc-4.7-20120518/gcc/testsuite/gcc.dg/nested-func-4.c -v --save-temps -pg -lm -m32 -o ./nested-func-4.exe

as well as shell scripts for bad_runs.sh and bad_runs2.sh to execute each of the miscompiled binaries against the bundled FSF gcc shared library for libgcc_s.1.dylib.

Expected Results:
The nest.exe and nested-func-4.exe test cases should execute without errors as they do when built with the  -mmacosx-version-min=10.7 flag.

Actual Results:
In both cases, these test case fail with the error...

dyld: no valid entry point

The patch implements the recommended approach from the darwin linker developer of passing -no_new_main to the linker
when targeting 10.8 or later which tells the linker to look for "start" instead of "_main". Otherwise the linker sets up
_main as the entry point and _moninit is never called, resulting in a runtime error. Bootstrap and regression tested
on x86_64-apple-darwin12.

Okay for gcc trunk and later gcc-4_7-branch and gcc-4_6-branch?

	* config/darwin.h (STARTFILE_SPEC): Use -no_new_main with -lgcrt1.o
	on Darwin >= 12.
	(DARWIN_CRT1_SPEC): Use -lcrt1.10.6.o when Darwin >= 10 and < 12.
