+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #144419 +++ >binutils-2.17 fails tests (FEATURES="test") even with reasonable CFLAGS and no LDFLAGS. Depending on what version this message applied to, it looks like it may be a problem in the tests. >http://sources.redhat.com/ml/binutils/2006-05/msg00047.html I cloned bug to get attention for Gentoo 2007.0. Seems Bug #144419 is "down". Testsuite seems to be fixed (as mentioned in URL above) Some lines out of my install/test log: Running /var/tmp/portage/sys-devel/binutils-2.17/work/binutils-2.17/ld/testsuite/ld-i386/i386.exp ...
