------- Comment #2 from drepper at redhat dot com 2005-12-21 19:38 ------- Using gcc's section attributes won't fully work either.
Using __attribute((section(".rodata"))) is OK in the compiler, although the assembler (correctly) complaints. But what is really needed is __attribute((section(".rodata.cst8"))). This will cause gcc to fail with an ICE. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=25521
