I'm attaching a patch I got for GCC3.4 from Paul Brook at CodeSourcery which fixes the relocation problem. I'm assuming the one discussed below is the same one we ran into.

Regards,

Richard W.

------------------------------------------------------------------------ --

I've included a file called er_objs.tar.gz . I contains a somewhat reduced set of objects and the compile line to generate the error. If

you us another linker you will get past the error. As I said before this is for the Q4-2003 release and the Q1-2004 release.

[a0384864@dta0384864 objs]$ ./command_line_for_link_error ./libgcc.a(_udivsi3.oS)(.text+0xec):/work/GNU/CodeSourcery/gcc/gcc/con fi

The following patch should fix this problem. It will be included in future releases.

Paul

Wolfgang posted a couple days ago that you can't build the latest

with old gcc tools. Perhaps you're not really using the latest

compiler

This is WRONG.

It's vice versa: You cannot build OLD U-Boot sources with latest GCC.
