Ping!
When building GCC 4.3.0 for any newlib target I get: ... supports shared libraries... yes checking dynamic linker characteristics... no checking how to hardcode library paths into programs... immediate checking for shl_load... configure: error: Link tests are not allowed after GCC_NO_EXECUTABLES. make[1]: *** [configure-target-libstdc++-v3] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/gcc/build-gcc' make: *** [all] Error 2 I am using binutils 2.18, newlib 1.16.0 and Cygwin 1.5.24. The configure line is: ../gcc-4.3.0/configure --prefix=/usr/local/gcc-4.3.0-i686-elf --target=i686-elf --with-gnu-as --with-gnu-ld --with-newlib --with-headers=/gcc/newlib-1.16.0/newlib/libc/include --disable-shared --disable-libssp --enable-languages=c,c++ I searched for this error and found: http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2007-09/msg00421.html Wasn't this patched? How do I fix this? Regards, Hans Kester
