Hi Patrick,

apologies for
(a) the extra loop - I missed a deprecation warning when I built your  
last version ...
(b) rolling two things into one mail ...
... (point 1 is related the pie issue, point 2 to linkage hassles).

Point 2 below... now I look at this again, I wonder why the current  
scheme doesn't cause a problem for Rainer on c++ as well?

===

anyway.

1/ one of the routines you had in the fix was deprecated, can we try:

+  Dl_info info;
+
+  if (! dladdr (f, &info) || info.dli_fbase == NULL)
+    abort ();
+
+  mh = (struct mach_header *) info.dli_fbase;

(and the additional header include) instead?

2/ I've moved the dummy routines to the [Darwin] tm crt endfile  ..

+/* Provide dummy functions to satisfy linkage for versions of the  
Darwin tool-chain that
+   that can't handle undefined weak refs at the link stage.  */
+
+extern void *__cxa_allocate_exception (size_t) WEAK;
+extern void __cxa_throw (void *, void *, void *) WEAK;
+extern void *__cxa_begin_catch (void *) WEAK;
+extern void *__cxa_end_catch (void) WEAK;
+extern void __cxa_tm_cleanup (void *, void *, unsigned int) WEAK;
+
+void *__cxa_allocate_exception (size_t s UNUSED) { return NULL; }
+void __cxa_throw (void * a UNUSED, void * b UNUSED, void * c UNUSED)
+{ return; }
+void *__cxa_begin_catch (void * a UNUSED) { return NULL; }
+void *__cxa_end_catch (void) { return NULL; }
+void __cxa_tm_cleanup (void * a UNUSED, void * b UNUSED,  unsigned  
int c UNUSED)
+{ return; }
+

Rainer, would that work for you too ? ... it would allow removal from  
libitm/eh_cpp.cc

for now, for Darwin:

-#if !defined (HAVE_ELF_STYLE_WEAKREF)
+#if !defined (HAVE_ELF_STYLE_WEAKREF) && ! defined (__MACH__)

====

The attached works with/without -fpie on Darwin 9, I won't get a  
chance to test on D10 for a while, that machine is fully tied up ...  
and I don't have D11 .... could people try it, if this seems reasonable?
