Perhaps you guys would like to set -amd64?

[Comment 2 Jan Brinkmann (RETIRED) 2005-01-29 08:01:23 UTC]

ok, commited. thanks

[Comment 3 SpanKY 2005-12-09 12:25:49 UTC]

well, someone added ~amd64 back in and this bug still exists so ...

[Comment 4 Tres 'RiverRat' Melton 2005-12-10 16:35:09 UTC]

A little help here.  How do you reproduce it?  I downloaded the tarball and it
configured fine here.  It also ran all the tests that came with it (light&heavy)
with & without the debug flag.  It was already marked as testing and everything
seems fine.  So:  WORKS4ME.  :)

[Comment 5 Tres 'RiverRat' Melton 2005-12-10 16:36:28 UTC]

Damn, it also emerges fine too.  The first time I did it manually the second I
used emerge.  Both worked.

[Comment 6 Danny van Dyk (RETIRED) 2005-12-11 05:15:43 UTC]

Can't reproduce this bug either. Builds and runs for me...

Matt: can you still reproduce this problem? Can you try again with a more recent
glibc please, too?

[Comment 7 SpanKY 2005-12-11 08:42:39 UTC]

yes, it emerges fine, but trying to use the library fails

$ echo 'int main(){}' > test.c
$ gcc test.c -ldmalloc

same here

/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/4.0.2/../../../../x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: a.out: hidden symbol `atexit' in /usr/lib64/libc_nonshared.a(atexit.oS) is referenced by DSO

using glibc-2.3.6-r2 just to know.

[Comment 9 Malcolm Lashley (RETIRED) 2006-08-15 14:56:45 UTC]

So I'm not seeing the error anymore can some others confirm (or provide a more stringent test/use-case ;-)...

can't reproduce either (linking, not just building), seems to be resolved
