Hi -

After obtaining the latest version of gcc (2.7.2) and binutils (2.6), 
I've been having problems with dynamicaly loaded executables.

In particular, I was building Khoros on a SS10 4.1.3_U1.  I set up gcc
to use GNU's as and ld, from the latest binutils.  Shared libraries
seemed to be built ok, but executables produced against those
libraries droped core (SIGSEGV), apparently on the first call to
a routine in one of the Khoros shared libs.

I set things up to use Sun's as and ld, and things seem to work.  
Using the same shared libs, working executables were produced.

After posting to the khoros newsgroup, I determined that there is at
least one other person with the same setup, and difficulties.

So, is there a problem with GNU's ld?
