Monty, looks like HPUX systems are not the only ones affected by the
gcc/ld problem.
What's going on:
When gcc builds binaries/libraries it uses a lot of functions that are
only found in libgcc.a. Some time ago, Monty switched to using a
package called libtool to build libraries. Libtool uses ld to build
the shared libraries. Normally, this is a fine way to proceed. The
problem is that ld does not copy the functions that gcc compiled
libraries need(Eg: __udivdi3).
The only way(That I know of, anyway) is to use gcc to do the final link
stage instead of ld. Using gcc will copy all the correct functions
into the library that are needed.
Check the mysql archives to see how to do this. I posted instructions and
an explanation of what was going on.
I made a few stabs at trying to get configure to do what I want, but no
joy.
