emerge syslinux results

iggy claims the patch isnt needed anymore

Build failures confirmed with hardened specs (somebody remove the filterting of
fstack) ;/

I'll hack on it and post something here

re comment #2 iggy is wrong. A patch is still needed. But now it's missing
~!@#$%^ and cvs.gentoo.org seems to be down.
If I recall right every makefile needs to have -fno-stack-protector added and
memdisk/dos utils have to be disabled.
I'll hunt for the old patch to see what I had todo before.

syslinux-3.07-solar.patch

First patch for testing

Note:  make  BSUBDIRS="" installer

Created an attachment (id=48839) [details]
/syslinux-3.07.ebuild.patch

patch to use to build it.

We can remove the  BSUBDIRS="" if we append -fno-pie to the makefiles of the
programs that have the BREG errors.

(From update of attachment 48839 [details])
the logic is wrong here for the src_unpack()

I ment the src_compile() vs the src_unpack()
Anyway just tested again.. 
And oddly enough the BREG errors are not showing up that I noticed before.
so the first patch is all that appears to be needed at this time. (perhaps I got it to as a result of doing a make clean before a make)

(doing a make clean before building yeilds the following results)

nasm -f bin -o comecho.com -l comecho.lst comecho.asm

syslinux-3.07.ebuild.patch

you can rename -solar to -nossp if you want to follow suit how it used to be
named the last time I did a patch for syslinux.

spanky.. Should this ebuild which does not use autotools at all make use of the
toolchain-func.eclass ? 

spanky says no toolchain-funcs needed here.

iggy I'm hijacking this bug from you.
