I have been encountering the following problem for several weeks. I compile and
create few c++ shared libraries (can happen with just one, so it has nothing to
do with the number). I then attempt to link a program and I get the following
type of segv during the link step:
collect2: ld terminated with signal 11 [Segmentation fault]
/usr/bin/ld: build/x86-64.linux/gcc64/cc-g/subscribeClient.o: bad relocation
section name `'
It happens with both -O2 and -g compiled code (although it is a bit more
frequent with -g code). In addition, usually if it happens with -O2 code then
it
will work fine when I compiled with -g (or vice-versa).
I will attach a test case with a README file that shows how to reproduce.
