I'm trying, but I can't figure out how to pass the needed --hash-style=gnu option to the linker :-/ > If you want to require a minimal binutils > version, you might take inspiration at > http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/build/tree/patches/dev300/link-as-needed.diff Thanks for the link, but I'm afraid it won't help here. The binutils version is only important when you want to generate ELF files using the new .gnu.hash section; it is of no use when you want to check if a particular system can _run_ them.
