--- Begin Message ---Package: g++-4.6 Version: 4.6.4-2 Severity: serious Justification: makes other packages fail to build from source On mipsel, C++ executables built with -Wl,-z,now and -fPIE (per dpkg's customary hardening flags) crash on startup (jumping to NULL from __libc_start_main@plt), leading to #710807 and likely also #708812. Could you please take a look? Thanks! BTW, the same errors occur with g++-4.7 4.7.3-4 and g++-4.8 4.8.0-8; please feel free to clone and/or reassign this report accordingly. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- $ cat test.cc #include <string> static std::string s; int main(int, char**) { return 0; } $ g++ -Wl,-z,now -fPIE test.cc $ gdb a.out GNU gdb (GDB) 7.4.1-debian [...] Reading symbols from /home/ucko/a.out...(no debugging symbols found)...done.

Never mind, it looks like the error occurs only when using -fPIE without -pie, as the executable responsible for #710807 accidentally did; that happened to work up through eglibc 2.13, but broke with 2.17 on mips*. As I understand it, that's not supported usage at all, so I'm closing this bug accordingly. Sorry for the noise. -- Aaron M.
