Description spock128 2012-04-30 05:56:41 UTC

I've been trying to bootstrap on an armv4l (non-thumb) device, and I ran into an issue building glibc.  Glibc would attempt to use some unsupported THUMB instructions, causing the build to fail.

I was able to modify the ebuild to apply this patch, which allowed glibc to build: http://sources.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12097
The RedHat guys are apparently using this patch, no idea when/if it'll be applied to mainline glibc.

Reproducible: Always
