Description Rainer Orth 2011-07-12 18:56:49 UTC 
Despite the excellent gold testsuite results on Solaris 11/x86, gcc testresults
were terrible.  Most of the failures seem to be due to two issues, though:

Many of the TLS tests fail, particularly (only including -O0):

32-bit:

FAIL: gcc.dg/torture/tls/run-ie.c  -O0  execution test
FAIL: gcc.dg/torture/tls/run-le.c  -O0  execution test

64-bit:

FAIL: gcc.dg/torture/tls/run-ie.c  -O0  execution test
FAIL: gcc.dg/torture/tls/run-ld.c  -O0  execution test
FAIL: gcc.dg/torture/tls/run-le.c  -O0  execution test

My strong suspicion is that gold needs fixes along the lines of

and
