AW: __eprintf

[Tarassov Vadim <Vadim.Tarassov@winterthur.ch>]

Hi Kervin,

I just got libgcc.a, cheated configure. 
Still I don't understand if I did something good.

Thanx a lot for reply, Vadim Tarassov.

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.
