Description:   Opened: 2009-06-28 07:08 0000 
When cross-compiling and linking against a #4411 linker script, ld will search
the library on the host first. For an amd64 host the following test script

echo "Testing with absolute linker script (systems libz)..."
echo "int main(void) { return 0; }" > test.c
echo "GROUP ( /lib/libz.so )" > "${PWD}/libfoo-script.so"
armv4tl-softfloat-linux-gnueabi-gcc test.c -o test libfoo-script.so

will fail with

Testing with absolute linker script (systems libz)...
/lib/libz.so: file not recognized: File format not recognized
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

because the lib (/lib/libz.so) specified in the linker script is searched on
host first. The following patch solves this problem (upstream bug
http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=10340).


Reproducible: Always

ld should search libs in sysroot first

When ld was configured with a sysroot, it should always search for libraries
with absolute filename in this sysroot first. This patch was tested on
x86_64-pc-linux-gnu without sysroot and armv4tl-softfloat-linux-gnueabi
cross-compilation with sysroot and works fine on both.

patch has been added to binutils-2.19.51.0.12.  if things work out, we can also
put it into binutils-2.19.1.
