- (sorry to post to gnu.misc.discuss, but this follows up a message I
- posted there earlier.) I have found out some stuff since my last
- message. It seems that the problem was with the loader I am using.
- When I compile with the profiling flag (-pg) I get the message that
- it can't find libc_p.a, because this file happens not to be installed
- on our system. When I provide a libc_p.a I get the message
-
- ld: _DYNAMIC bootstrapping not available: use -Bstatic.
- collect: /usr/bin/ld returned 4 exit status
-
- If I install gnu ld instead of collect2 I can get a working
- program, but it has the gdb "next" problem I described in
- my previous message. Loading with -static causes it to list
- a bunch of assembler symbols as unresolved.
-
- I will see if using gnu libc helps.
