Description Victor Gaydov 2010-07-22 18:28:18 UTC 
$ cd /ntfs/partition
$ cat > 1.c
int main(){return 0;}
$ gcc 1.c 
/usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/4.4.3/../../../../i686-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: final link failed: Numerical result out of range
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

I found patch here: http://osdir.com/ml/linux.file-systems.ntfs.devel/2007-11/msg00011.html
It works. Will be nice to see the fix in portage, thanks.


Reproducible: Always

umm, how exactly are you mounting things ?  ntfs is mounted without needing any userspace component like ntfsprogs, so why would changing ntfsprogs make any difference to executing files off of a ntfs partition ?
