Thank you for this information. I have trouble finding definitive documentation for Apple development tools. My original patch assumes that `-no_fixup_chains` would be silently ignored by intermediate linker versions older than Xcode 13. I have not yet tested this assumption on any such Macs. If that is a good assumption, then existing guards in the current 2.4.7 libtool code block should be sufficient, and I recommend merge with no changes. If not a good assumption, or it goes against GNU libtool design standards in any way, such as no unknown flags, then I request help on how to construct the correct test within libtool, for the Xcode linker version. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?111069> _______________________________________________ Message sent via Savannah https://savannah.gnu.org/
