When building Firefox 102.3.0esr from source using ld.bfd 2.38, python 3.10.8, rust 1.62.1::musl, clang 14.0.6-r1, and gcc 12.2.0, Firefox build fails due to an undefined reference to "__cxa_finalize" in /usr/lib/crtbeginS.o. This appears to have something to do with the linker flag "--no-as-needed" specified in /widget/gtk/mozgtk/moz.build in the Firefox source tree. When this is removed, Firefox does build successfully, however a cursory "ldd /usr/lib/firefox/libmozgtk.so" reveals that it has no dynamic dependencies, and thus the --no-as-needed is necessary for a proper build. Since libmozgtk.so contains no actual code, it is simple to fix this by just creating a file with the necessary dependencies or copying a correct libmozgtk.so from the binary releases available at mozilla.org. The symbol __cxa_finalize is defined in libc.so, so I'm not sure why the linker isn't able to find it, however I unfortunately don't have much time to debug the issue tonight, and there is no other pertinent information in the build logs. The command line that failed is "/usr/bin/x86_64-gentoo-linux-musl- gcc -fPIC -ffunction-sections -fdata-sections -fno-math-errno -pt hread -pipe -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -funwind-tables -shared -Wl,

overrides it later on anyway, and if I did force GCC to use mold it would still fail with the same error. -- Firefox is being built with USE="dbus eme-free hardened hwaccel jack openh264 screencast

- Please include the full build.log; - Please verify it doesn't actually happen when dropping -fuse-ld=mold, as I've seen an odd build failure like this before even when people insisted it wasn't being used. It doesn't help the Mozilla build system is fragile.
Also, instead, please use dev-lang/rust from ::gentoo (not dev-lang/rust-bin).
I attempted a build with the suggested setup, and the same error occurred. This is with rust-1.64.0::gentoo and without -fuse-ld=mold. I am currently unable to upload the build log because I receive "Internal Server Error"
Created attachment 824621 [details] Build Log Illustrating the Failure
It looks like the original problem with submitting the build log was permissions-based, but it should be available now. Searching "__cxa_finalize" brings up the line that caused the eventual failure, but since I had -j4 enabled there are a lot of lines after it.
firefox-115.3.1 builds fine for me on current stable musl-1.2.3-r7 + clang-16.0.6. This bug probably can be closed.
And 102 is removed, too.
