Re: __eprintf

["Kervin L. Pierre" <kervin@blueprint-tech.com>]

I ran into this problem as well.

from the configure script...

  solaris*)
    # gcc --version < 3.0 without binutils cannot create self contained
    # shared libraries reliably, requiring libgcc.a to resolve some of
    # the object symbols generated in some cases.  Libraries that use
    # assert need libgcc.a to resolve __eprintf, for example.  Linking
    # a copy of libgcc.a into every shared library to guarantee resolving
    # such symbols causes other problems:  According to Tim Van Holder
    # <tim.van.holder@pandora.be>, C++ libraries end up with a separate
    # (to the application) exception stack for one thing.
