Description Florian Weimer 2018-08-07 12:57:53 UTC

The error message is:

/home/bmg/build/compilers/nios2-linux-gnu/glibc/nios2-linux-gnu/locale/localedef.o: In function `parse_opt':
/home/bmg/build/compilers/nios2-linux-gnu/glibc-src/nios2-linux-gnu/locale/programs/localedef.c:373: warning: Unable to reach (null) (at 0x00040486) from the global pointer (at 0x00007ff0) because the offset (230550) is out of the allowed range, -32678 to 32767.

I will try building with 2.27, to see if the issue has been fixed.

I don't see a linker error with binutils 2.27.
