binutils-2.11 ld testsuite problems + PATCH




Hi folks,

Trying to compile binutils-2.11 on an i586-sco-sysv5uw7.1.1,
otherwise known as UnixWare 7.

Using gnu-make-3.79.1.
Native everything else (cc, ar, sed, ld, etc...)
No SCO UDK installed.  Building in the source tree.

I used ./configure --enable-shared   <--- nice and simple.
I used gmake                         <--- no problems.


Using gmake check, I get the following results.

  binutils - passed 22, skipped 4
  gas      - passed all 72
  ld       - passed 10, skipped 9, FAILED 7


I'd like to help fix the 7 failures, if I can.  More on
that later.



I found three bugs in ld/configure.host that stopped me from
being able to run the ld testsuite at all.

They're all in ld/configure.host.   I've included a patch.
Here's what was wrong for my platform:

     /lib/crt1.o                 <===  wrong path (/usr/ccs/lib/crt1.o)
     /lib/crtn.o                 <===  wrong path (/usr/ccs/lib/crtn.o)
     cc -print-libgcc-filename   <===  not an option to SCO's cc.




First the ld/configure.host patch where I add a test case for Uw7
and do a kludgy to look for gcc:

So that let me run gmake check-ld without crashing.  Then I was able
to get the results that had the 10 passes and 7 FAILS.


Here's the output from check-ld (truncated at 80 cols)...

At this point, I'm so new that I can't debug these FAILs without 
some pointers.  What should I do, and where should I start?

Thanks,
Matthew
