GNU linker and gcc on IRIX6.x

[Koundinya K]

Hi,
    Thanks there for the reply. I am using the binutils snapshot
binutils-000217. Even if I omit the --enable-shared while configuring,
still there are no changes. Here is the exact point in the build where
the GNU linker seg faults.

stage1/xgcc -Bstage1/ -B/opt/devtools/mips-sgi-irix6.4/bin/ -c
-DIN_GCC    -W -Wall -Wtraditional -O2 -g  -DHAVE_CONFIG_H    -I.
-I../../egcs-20000214/gcc -I../../egcs-20000214/gcc/config
-I../../egcs-20000214/gcc/../include obstack.c
stage1/xgcc -Bstage1/ -B/opt/devtools/mips-sgi-irix6.4/bin/  -DIN_GCC
-W -Wall -Wtraditional -O2 -g  -DHAVE_CONFIG_H  -o cppmain cppmain.o \
intl.o libcpp.a obstack.o        ../libiberty/libiberty.a
collect2: ld terminated with signal 11 [Segmentation fault]
gmake[2]: *** [cppmain] Error 1
gmake[2]: Leaving directory
`/volume2/knk/src/egcs/build-egcs-20000214/gcc'
gmake[1]: *** [bootstrap-lean] Error 2
gmake[1]: Leaving directory
`/volume2/knk/src/egcs/build-egcs-20000214/gcc'
gmake: *** [bootstrap-lean] Error 2

Any other suggestion or help will be appreciated .

BTW, Does the GNU ld atleast support the generation of shared libs on
IRIX6.x ??

Thanks
