Hadn't the Andreas reply available here, but he was right, the '2.16.91'
branch seems to
be broken, for instance the "icecream" one at the OpenSuse 10.0 archives :
kai@Dell:/opt/host-SuSE10.1_ia64/lib>
/usr/local/ia64-suse-linux10.1/bin/ld -V
GNU ld version 2.16.91.0.5 20051219 (SUSE Linux)
Supported emulations:
elf64_ia64
My self-made one (..0.7) behaved similarly. But an earlier '2.14.90.0.7'
binutils for RHL7.2/ia64
accepted the format....
binutils provided with major linux distros for ia64 and x86-64 have been
chronically problematical. I have had success with the Red Hat "hot
fix" binutils for ia64 (of doubtful open-ness) and the gnu binutils 2.17.
I hesitate to make suggestions which almost certainly will be ignored,
but I would like to see gcc test_summary report automatically about the
ld version.
