That message is not generated by make, and make does not use the symbol GC_move_disappearing_link. This error is generated by your runtime linker (ld.so), which is trying to load all the shared libraries linked into your application (in this case GNU make) before any of the application code is even started. GNU make can't "shield" itself from this problem: it's not even running yet. _______________________________________________ Bug-make mailing list Bug-make@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-make
