shared library being built for amd64. The problem is that libstdc++.so
is produced with 'cc -shared'. This has an internal -lgcc, which is
not PIC. libstdc++.so uses exceptions and the dwarf2 unwinder, which
are in libgcc.a. As a result, non-PIC code gets pulled into libstdc++.so.
This is fatal on amd64 when certain relocation types cannot be used in
PIC mode. The official FSF solution to this is to have libgcc.so with
internal ELF symbol versioning to solve the ABI problem, but I dont want
to fight that battle yet. I tried making libgcc_pic.a (which worked
fine), but thats not something for the 11th hour before a release.

not to blindly undef isnan() and other functions that became macros in C99.
Enable use of newly grown C99 functions: strtof(), strtold(), wcstof()

shared object of libobjc, we end up linking in from the archive
version. This is wrong, because we don't compile the archive version
suitable for inclusion in shared objects. On ia64 this causes actual
breakages. Compile the archive version with PIC on ia64 to avoid
the breakage there and also to avoid changing the status quo on
other architectures. If other architectures have the same problem,
we probably should start building a shared library. There's no
indication however that other architectures actually need it.
Building the archive version with PIC on ia64 does pessimize linking
complete binaries (ie fully archive), but we don't use Objective-C
ourselves and so far I haven't seen non-shared executables written
in Objective-C, so I'm sure this will be nothing but academic.

under way to move the remnants of the a.out toolchain to ports. As the
comment in src/Makefile said, this stuff is deprecated and one should not
expect this to remain beyond 4.0-REL. It has already lasted WAY beyond
that.
Notable exceptions:
gcc - I have not touched the a.out generation stuff there.
ldd/ldconfig - still have some code to interface with a.out rtld.
old as/ld/etc - I have not removed these yet, pending their move to ports.
some includes - necessary for ldd/ldconfig for now.
Tested on: i386 (extensively), alpha
to work at least for the non-hairy stuff. The main wrinkle here is that
a whole mess of include files get installed and under different names.
An earlier version of this built a shadow include tree first in the obj
directory, but this depends on the 'make includes' functionality.
More tweaking is certainly going to be needed.
sparc64 looked for the nonexistent sparc64/lb1spc.asm file instead
of the sparc/lb1spc.asm file.
arm probably looked for arm/arm/lib1funcs.asm instead of arm/lib1funcs.asm
ia64 probably looked for ia64/ia64/lib1funcs.asm instead of ia64/lib1funcs.asm
i386 and alpha don't seen to use the LIB1ASMSRC.
later. Otherwise make will try and build the supposedly assembler .o
files from libgcc2.c - which does not work too well (the .o's have no
content)

again. Try and deal with platforms that provide their own crtbegin/end asm
files (ia64 for example). crtstuff.c does not actually work on ia64 since
libgcc.a doesn't have a few key support functions when built on ia64 so it
is compulsory to use crtbegin.asm and crtend.asm.

Get rid of the INTERNALSTATICLIB knob and just use plain INTERNALLIB.
INTERNALLIB now means to build static library only and don't install
anything. Added a NOINSTALLLIB knob for libpam/modules. To not
build any library at all, just do not set LIB.
via INCS. Implemented INCSLINKS (equivalent to SYMLINKS) to
handle symlinking include files. Allow for multiple groups of
include files to be installed, with the powerful INCSGROUPS knob.
Documentation to follow.
Added standard `includes' and `incsinstall' targets, use them
in Makefile.inc1. Headers from the following makefiles were
not installed before (during `includes' in Makefile.inc1):
kerberos5/lib/libtelnet/Makefile
lib/libbz2/Makefile
lib/libdevinfo/Makefile
lib/libform/Makefile
lib/libisc/Makefile
lib/libmenu/Makefile
lib/libmilter/Makefile
lib/libpanel/Makefile
Replaced all `beforeinstall' targets for installing includes
with the INCS stuff.
Renamed INCDIR to INCSDIR, for consistency with FILES and SCRIPTS,
and for compatibility with NetBSD. Similarly for INCOWN, INCGRP,
and INCMODE.
Consistently use INCLUDEDIR instead of /usr/include.
gnu/lib/libstdc++/Makefile and gnu/lib/libsupc++/Makefile changes
were only lightly tested due to the missing contrib/libstdc++-v3.
I fully tested the pre-WIP_GCC31 version of this patch with the
contrib/libstdc++.295 stuff.
These changes have been tested on i386 with the -DNO_WERROR "make
world" and "make release".
We now fake out the native libgcc.mk + GNU autoconf'ed Makefile.
This gives us the flexability we will need to support our new arches
(StrongARM, Sparc64, PowerPC, and IA-64). If this new way proves to
be too much a hassle, I still have a close-to-being-finished version
that is more like the 2.95 version of this file.
