SUSE Linux 8.0 originally came with binutils 2.11.92.0.10, which is quite a bit newer than what you have, despite already being several years old. Also, it didn't provide the file /bin/as in the first place. (Btw, putting "." first in $PATH is a very bad thing to do. If you really want "." in $PATH you should at most put it last.)

That's the cause of your problem: configure:4657: gcc -o conftest -O2 conftest.c >&5 /tmp/ccBCyz5e.s: Assembler messages: /tmp/ccBCyz5e.s:23: Warning: Bad .section directive: want a,w,x in string /tmp/ccBCyz5e.s:23: Error: Rest of line ignored. First ignored character is `M'. gcc is outputting directives that the assembler doesn't understand because it's much older. You can't really expect tools with this large of a version dicrepancy to work together. I don't even understand how you managed to compile this version of gcc because it's supposed to do configure checks of the assembler in order to enable functionality, but that's neither here nor there. I suggest that you ditch this self-compiled gcc and use whatever compiler came with your distro, as it will at least work harmoniously with this ancient binutils. Use that combination to build a modern binutils, then rebuild a modern gcc and make sure it uses the updated binutils (e.g. by putting the new binutils first in PATH before the old one or by specifying --with-as and --with-ld.)

[Bug ld/6727] New: Thumb interworking code zero under certain circumstances
PROBLEM DESCRIPTION under certain circumstances, Thumb interworking code is not generated correctlyby GNU LD. it is full of NULLs. with arm-elf-ld: - if you have --gc-sections enabled - if you have asm in ARM mode with -mthumb-interwork - asm code contains an "ax" section .VhaInit with instructions - if you have a C file in Thumb mode -mthumb with -mthumb-interwork - if asm code is positioned before C generated code using --section-start whereas .text is positioned later with -Ttext - if you prevent garbage-collection of .VhaInit using instructions from .text to access .VhaInit then, the thumb interworking code is zero. WORKAROUND the interworking code is generated correctly if you place -Ttext before --section-start. -- Summary: Thumb interworking code zero under certain circumstances Product: binutils Version: 2.17 Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: ld AssignedTo: unassigned at sources dot redhat dot com ReportedBy: adsouzp at netscape dot net CC: bug-binutils at gnu dot org GCC host triplet: CYGWIN_NT-5.1 jenny 1.5.25(0.156/4/2) 2008-06-12 19:34 i686 Cygw GCC target triplet: ARM ELF arm7tdmi armv4t http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=6727 --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ___ bug-binutils mailing list bug-binutils@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-binutils

--- Additional Comments From adsouzp at netscape dot net 2008-07-08 08:07 --- i narrowed down the exact situation when Thumb interworking code is zero. - when you position any section, say .data, before you position .text using --section-start or -Tdata for other sections and -Ttext for .text, - when Thumb interworking is enabled - when --gc-sections is enabled at that time, Thumb interworking code is zero. it does not matter if the offending section is finally garbage collected or not.
