21 /* Jim Blandy <jimb@occs.cs.oberlin.edu> - September 1992
23 When using GCC 2 as the linker in the build process, options
24 intended for the linker need to be prefixed with the "-Xlinker"
25 option. If an option takes an argument, we need to use -Xlinker
26 twice - once for the option and once for its argument. For
27 example, to run the linker with the options "-Bstatic" "-e"
28 "_start", you'd need to pass the following options to GCC:
30 -Xlinker -Bstatic -Xlinker -e -Xlinker _start.
32 The Emacs makefile used to use a Bourne Shell `for' loop to prefix
33 each linker option with "-Xlinker", but 1) the for loop was hairier
34 than one might hope because it had to work when there were no
35 arguments to pass to the linker - the shell barfs on a loop like
36 this:
38 for arg in ; do echo -Xlinker "$arg"; done
40 and 2) the whole compilation command containing this loop seems to
41 exit with a non-zero status and halt the build under Ultrix.
43 If I can't write a completely portable program to do this in C,
44 I'm quitting and taking up gardening. */
