#9336: binutils gold linker detection does not work when called via gcc and selected by commandline parameters -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: slomo | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.8.3 Keywords: | Differential Revisions: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Type of failure: None/Unknown | Unknown/Multiple Test Case: | Difficulty: Unknown Blocking: | Blocked By: | Related Tickets: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- The binutils gold detection does not work if it is called via gcc and only selected via commandline parameters (i.e. -fuse-ld=gold). Reason is that the "linker" (actually compiler) is called without its commandline parameters. Attached patch fixes that. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9336 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
