Re: New GCC Runtime Library Exception: not fit for purpose
Quoting Ian Lance Taylor <iant@google.com>:
The incremental linking argument is irrelevant. Either it's OK
without that or it's not OK with that.
Well, if we disregard incremental linking, than the propagation
is clearly not allowed.
Combining the runtime Library with Independent Modules is certainly
more specific than combining the runtime Library with Independent Modules
and anything else you feel like.
Moreover, a typical link will contain Target Code which has not been
generated by Eligible Compilation Processes - including any object file
which has been assembled from assembly Source Code, like crt0.S or
strcmp.S, will disqualify the work for the exception.
