I agree. I'm disturbed that there's any evidence that people were relying on the old behavior, but it just seems wrong: This: > _START = DEFINED(_START) ? _START : 0x9000000; in combination with --defsym _START=... should result in a defined _START. IMO, the most logical interpretation of --defsym is that the linker operate "as if" such definitions occurred at the top of the linker script, in the order they appeared on the command line, so that the script is actually: _START = 0x80000000; _START = DEFINED(_START) ? _START : 0x9000000; And, in that case, of course, _START is defined. -- Configure bugmail: http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ bug-binutils mailing list bug-binutils@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-binutils
