------- Comment #10 from bangerth at dealii dot org 2007-10-09 14:53 ------- If it's a request to improve the AIX linker, should we even keep this PR open?
David, as a sidenote (because you're at IBM), this is the sort of thing that makes AIX such an unpopular target to do development on. It just surprises me that 10+ years after everyone else had their linker fixed to support proper C++ templates and initialization order, IBM's linker still can't do it. I found porting our 350 kloc template-heavy code to AIX one of the more painful exercises I ever did. That's not your fault, but maybe you can pass it on to someone in charge. Sigh, and sorry for the digression... W. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=33704
