I always wondered why the GPC distribution contained a different libgcc.a than the GCC distribution. I assumed that the GPC version had some extra stuff in it.
However, it appears that the latest GPC version is incompatible with GNU C++.
I've just spent all morning trying to make the GAWS package. Every time I tried to make any examples, I got heaps of linker errors.
Eventually, in desparation, I replaced libgcc.a with the copy in GCC281b.ZIP. Suddenly all my linker errors dissappeared.
I also note that the libgcc.a in the latest beta version of GPC is considerably shorter than the ones in previous versions.
So what is the story with the GPC version of libgcc.a?
thanks Russell
