Now I see what you're talking about. The threading library of
classlib doesn't compile on x86_64. It fails with the same error
[exec]
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/4.1.1/../../../../x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld:

I've found out that thrspinlock.o is compiled from an assembly code
of thrspinlock.s which was created in HARMONY-1005. It looks like
something wasn't done correctly enough. On SuSE9 it did work ok, but
not any more. Compiling assembly sources with "gcc -fpic" didn't
change anything. It looks like the code itself has to be changed.
Thanks for having identified the issue.
Do we have any idea on how to proceed?
(sorry for being pushy, but gump is waiting ;-)
I think I've found a solution. The fix for assembly code is in
HARMONY-2185. Now if I get everything working with it I'll commit the
patch.
I've committed the fix. I had to also patch drlvm to make it compile on
gcc 4.1. In depends for classlib I had to link
/usr/lib64/lib{lcms,png,jpeg}.so files because the static versions don't
work.
Now it seems to be working but many tests crash. For the most part these
tests are kernel tests running on jitrino.opt.
