In brief:
- "ld --nostdinc" apparently can't be trusted to only look where you tell
it for libraries.
- gcc3 generates code which requires libgcc, some of which requires
glibc symbols and structures (unless we build a uClibc specific libgcc).
Have I got that correct?
I'm curious, as one *should* be able to build and use a library without
building its own toolchain. I'm also in the process of trying to update
Steven Hill's SRPMS, so I want to understand the issues.
Let's start with my first question: why do we need binutils specially
built for uclibc? (I can't see anything different in Mr Hill's binutils,
other than the names of the executables).
