[uClibc-cvs] uClibc/extra/Configs Config.in,1.15,1.16

[Erik Andersen]

Update of /var/cvs/uClibc/extra/Configs
In directory winder:/tmp/cvs-serv4703/extra/Configs

Modified Files:
	Config.in 
Log Message:
Patch from Stefan Allius to make adding libgcc functions to the library an
option, to avoid the possibility of adding non PIC code into the shared PIC
uClibc library, thereby making the .text segment unshareable.

+	  If you answer Y here, all unresolved functions provided by the libgcc
+	  library that are used by uClibc will be added directly into the
+	  uClibc library.  If your gcc compiler only provides a static libgcc
+	  library, then enabling this option can reduce the size of your
+	  binaries by preventing these functions from being staticly linked
+	  into every binary.  If you have compiled uClibc as PIC code, one
+	  potential size effect of this option is that you may end up adding
+	  non-PIC libgcc code into your shared uClibc library, resulting in a
+	  non shareable text segment (thereby wasting a bunch of ram).  If your
+	  compiler supports a shared libgcc library, you should certainly leave
+	  this option disabled.  Regardless, the safest answer is N.
