but our gcc re-orders them so that all -R args come at the front
of the "ld" invocation. This messes up the relative search order,
and is at least partly responsible for "the pixman problem"
experienced on (at least) NetBSD 5.1. This is as close as a general
fix as I can think of, and should fix PR#46130, although it possibly
doesn't fix every instance of this more general problem.
- provide cpp wrapper using cc -E
- provide c++_r wrapper working like c++
- provide -rpath handling for cc
- fix some debug messages to provide the correct script name
- Add cc_r/xlc_r wrapper using the same rules as xlc itself.
It is used for example by Perl.
- Improve the RPATH emulation:
- Always set -blibpath, use /usr/lib:/lib as default
- If -blibpath is exlicitly given, add to the default
- Additionally append any -Wl,-rpath given.
The PKG_FAIL_REASON isn't executed by default, no idea why, but this
makes it a bit cleaner why the compiler wrapper will fail and fixes the
more important AIX case.
other libraries (specified with -l).
Fixes a linking problem in net-snmp, where the Perl DynaLoader.a library
becomes out-of-order when all -l arguments have been moved to the end of
the command line.
and then call it as a shell function. Note that the shell function is
not called "cache", since some shells have problems when a function has
the same name as a variable.
This speeds up the wrapper by as little as 75 percent for the final link
command of editors/abiword on SunOS-5.10-sparc (before: 20 seconds,
after: 5 seconds).
duplicate them into the list of libraries. Someone may want to mix
static and dynamic linking.
Fixes PR#37228, approved by jlam.
jlam says that a better long-term fix would be to ensure that all
the -L specifications come before the -l specifications, instead
of moving all the -l specifications to the end of the command line.
for several years now, since the directories in the -I... and -L...
options usually don't need quoting. But when the -D... option was
processed using the same code, the bug had become visible.
log file in a format that allows copy-and-paste into a shell. Before, it
wasn't possible to see from the log file whether a space was a delimiter
or part of a shell word.
