Description H.J. Lu 2006-11-02 15:54:11 UTC 
With the current binutils, glibc failed to build on ia64

checking for -z relro option... no
configure: error: linker with -z relro support required

ia64 linker never supported -z relro. The current binutils removes "-z relro"
from "ld --help" output, which leads to configure time failure.

Not only does this not belong here, it also is no issue anymore for quite sometime.

Do not ever again report build problems here.
