This is something we thought might be an issue when I first made the
change, but we noticed libpthread et al have minima specified already and
we overlooked libthread_db. I have changed the generation now so that
DEFAULT lines will work regardless of the order.
If only libthread_db was actually affected, then I don't think there will
be any ABI compatibility issue in actual practice. libthread_db is
normally used only with dlopen/dlsym rather than direct linking, and
versioned symbol lookups (dlvsym) are not normally used. (Certainly there
will be no problem with gdb.)
Thanks,
Roland
