The problem, at least on linux/powerpc, is that there are not enough
room for all the symbols at link time, because of the -fPIC
implementation. You get only 64K of GOT entries for the ELF format on
this architecture.
I think that there are two ways of solving this problem : enhancing the
linker or splitting the big library into smaller ones.
I've already reported the bug to the gcc team some months ago (
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28904 ) but it
doesn't seem to be simple to solve.
Also, every time we will try to link CS bindings object files to a
single shared object, the link will fail. So I think splitting the
bindings into smaller libraries is the right way to solve the problem.
Morever, if somebody wants to modify the bindings, it's a lot more
confortable not to have to recompile everything.
Hope this helps...
Bye,
