Hi,
I found a problem in configure which I checked out from
sunsite.dk using a tag `-r r21-4-6rc1'.
I am using solaris 2.6 with the native ld (/usr/ucb/ld).
The configure script calls ld with the arg `--help', however,
ld does not allow such a option, but it returns the following:
/usr/ccs/bin/ld: illegal option -- -
usage: ld [-abd:e:f:h:il:mo:rstu:z:B:D:F:GI:L:M:N:Q:R:S:VY:] file(s)
;
;
[-z combreloc] combine multiple relocation sections
And then, configure adds `-z nocombreloc' to $ld_switch_site
even if there is no such a option. :-<

Good, the configure test is working as intended. I was worried about
that.
The problem is easy enough to fix. For GNU ld, the nocombreloc option
is explicitly listed, and I'll check for that instead. You can work
around by either hacking configure or by using --pdump.
Does your linker support turning those -z options off in another way?

The solaris 2.7 ld I have here supports -z combreloc, but not -z
nocombreloc, and lists only -z combreloc in the usage message you get
when it bitches about not understanding --help. Testing for
nocombreloc should work.

Did you try to get a full update? Check version.sh. As far as I can
tell, you will not get a correct checkout from sunsite.dk yet.

I see. You use `2>&1' for redirection.

Thanks. I will try to use `nocombreloc' in configure.in later.

I don't know. I'm not good at those things, sorry.

I am a liar. I was using the candidate branch. :-p
Now, downloading a tarball via ftp is in progress...

I suggest simply deleting that whole section from configure by hand. The
next update of configure.in should work for you by default.

I did it. Thank you.
