When I compile bitswash-0.0.5 http://sourceforge.net/projects/bitswash I get numerous errors of this nature:

I am using the newest version of everything and a 3.x series GCC. This is a similar bug to "Discarded Linkonce sections in .rodata" http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16625 which is reported against GCC 3.4.0 (Opened: 2004-07-19), marked as "RESOLVED FIXED" (2007-09-07) for GCC 4.1 or later. This report is for the newest GCC 3.x for Debian, "GNU C++ version 3.4.6 (Debian 3.4.6-6) (i486-linux-gnu)". Since there are still releases for 3.x and the other report is closed (after three years) I am filing this one. I used the small testcase from "Comment #27" http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16625#c27 but compiled it with only this one version of g++ (as opposed to mixing different versions as Simon did). # g++-3.4 -v Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc/i486-linux-gnu/3.4.6/specs Configured with: ../src/configure -v --enable-languages=c,c++,f77,pascal --prefix=/usr --libexecdir=/usr/lib --with-gxx-include-dir=/usr/include/c++/3.4 --enable-shared --with-system-zlib --enable-nls --without-included-gettext --program-suffix=-3.4 --enable-__cxa_atexit --enable-clocale=gnu --enable-libstdcxx-debug --with-tune=i686 i486-linux-gnu Thread model: posix gcc version 3.4.6 (Debian 3.4.6-6) # ld -V GNU ld (GNU Binutils for Debian) 2.18.20071027 # g++-3.4 -Wall -W -pedantic -O2 -c lib1.cc # g++-3.4 -Wall -W -pedantic -O2 -c lib2.cc # g++-3.4 -Wall -W -pedantic -Wl,--verbose -o main lib1.o lib2.o main.cc ... attempt to open lib1.o succeeded lib1.o attempt to open lib2.o succeeded lib2.o attempt to open /tmp/ccuiuvcP.o succeeded /tmp/ccuiuvcP.o attempt to open`.gnu.linkonce.t._ZN3Foo1fEi' referenced in section `.rodata' of lib2.o: defined in discarded section `.gnu.linkonce.t._ZN3Foo1fEi' of lib2.o ... collect2: ld returned 1 exit status I also tested this on g++ "4.1.2 20061115 (prerelease) (Debian 4.1.1-21)" and g++ "4.2.2 (20070804)"; the problem does not seem to occur with the gcc 4.x series. -- Summary: "Addr_Label" referenced in section `.rodata' of "file": defined in discarded section `.gnu.linkonce.t...' of "file" Product: gcc Version: 3.4.6 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: c++ AssignedTo: unassigned at gcc dot gnu dot org ReportedBy: rob1weld at aol dot com GCC build triplet: i686-pc-linux-gnu GCC host triplet: i686-pc-linux-gnu GCC target triplet: i686-pc-linux-gnu http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=33938
