ld on sparc-solaris: linkage order

[Volker Boerchers]

Hi,

we are having problems getting a multithreaded application to run on
sparc-solaris7 (gcc-2.95.2, ld version 2.10 (with BFD 2.10)).

we found in the sun docs
( http://docs.sun.com:80/ab2/coll.45.10/MTP/@Ab2PageView/14940?DwebQuery=thread&Ab2Lang=C&Ab2Enc=iso-8859-1 ),
that the linkage order of libc and libthread has to be -lpthread -lc.

So we are fixing now the link line in the makefiles to see if this helps.

The sunpro linker has an option `-mt' to ensure this order automatically.
Is this possible with the gnu linker also?

best regards,
  Volker
