I hadn't understood Kai's earlier remark (and your remark on that one
neither, David --> I have to say that I didn't find config.gcc ?) (see my
former thread on this list for those entering right here).
After having looked into the EABI document (not understanding it all and
fully :-( ), and after safely having switched target (restarting from
binutils, although binutils could eventually have been skipped ?), I still
encounter that same problem at the same point. What is this libsim
(simulation) library exactly doing, and is it necessary ?
Could I eventually safely take the fstat.o (and the other .o- files) and
copy it into the rs6000 library before letting "powerpc-eabi-ar" do it's job
with it ? I tried configure with an extra argument "--without-libsim", but
this doesn't seem to be solving the problem. Anyone any clue ?
Thank you,
Regards,
Philippe Bertin.
