Hi

I looked up the symbols defined in libc.so.6 using "mipsel-linux-nm". Now although _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ is defined but it is not defined as global. Here is the output of the nm command

00000000 A GLIBC_PRIVATE 000b9370 T glob 000bab24 T glob64 00192920 a _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ 000b89f0 T globfree 000ba290 T globfree64 000b8d28 t glob_in_dir

I don't have much idea about this, but could this be the reason for the error I am getting?

Regards

Mudeem

using binutil 2.13. Also is the problem with binutil 2.15 or with U-Boot.

We're using binutils-2.14 in the ELDK and don;t see any such problems.
