Hi,
When running test-case gdb.base/break-interp.exp with target board gold, we
run into:
...
gdb compile failed, pie failed to generate PIE executable
...
The problem is that the proc exec_is_pie uses the PIE flag in the readelf -d
output, which doesn't seem to be set by the gold linker.
Instead, use the "Type" field in the readelf -h output.
Tested on x86_64-linux.
Committed to trunk.
Thanks,
- Tom
