Re: Build failure due to .incbin
A fourth option is to use a "bin2c" kind of build tool,
I was trying to avoid that, but
Except those symbols need to have an extra underscore in the
assembler source file, with the Darwin assembler. (Sorry I
didn't mention this earlier, I only noticed after I sent the
mail).
this means none of my ideas will work. The syms created by
"ld -r -b binary" don't have an extra underscore, probably a bug,
Darwin's ld has a "-b" flag with a completely different
meaning. Oh why couldn't they have used binutils, heh.
and
deciding whether a host (rather than a target) needs the extra
underscore adds yet more mess to configure.
Oh well, bin2c is easy to write, especially if you steal SET_BINARY
from textutils.
Thanks Alan! This seems to work fine for me (I couldn't
run "make check" since I botched its setup again; but
my build goes flawlessly now, and the generated SPU overlay
stuff looks good in visual inspection).
