Bug 458020 – [toolchain overlay] sys-libs/glibc-2.6.1 does not compile with up to date gcc and binutils (via crossdev)

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

[Description Daniel Scharrer 2013-02-17 18:47:01 UTC]

Compilation fails mostly due to configure/makefile issues (see attached patches). For x86, there are more issues - even with the attached patches (one is x86-specific), glibc would not build with stable gcc.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. crossdev --glibc 2.6.1 -t <whatever>
Actual Results:  
:(

Expected Results:  
:)

The attached patches fix all the issues I encountered, except for x86 where I needed <=cross-*/gcc-4.5 (4.6 and 4.7 didn't work).

It would be great if those patches could be added to the overlay.

Forgot to mention, the target values I tried are armv6j-hardfloat-linux-gnueabi and x86_64-bindist-linux-gnu targets (both work with the attached patches), cross-i686-bindist-linux-gnu (works only when also using an older gcc cross compiler).

yes, there are a lot of fixes that'll need backporting.  i suspect you only found the obvious ones.  i'm not sure this is something we want to maintain.
