[Linux-ia64] Tool chain ld program -Previous message incomplete

[roneng@ca.ibm.com]

I sent the previous email before it was complete by mistake
here is the complete version

I've been using the ld program in the Turbo linux distribution to build a
large (96Meg) shared library. The link seems
to be failing with Reallocation error.
To fix this problem I recompile the ld program in the Tool chain sources
from Cygnus with the following modification to
MAXPAGESIZE parameter in the
ld/emulparams/elf64_ia64.sh
originally the file had MAXPAGESIZE =0x10000
I modified this to MAXPAGESIZE = 0x10000000

The changed.Cygnus file shows that this parameter was changed on 1999-11-06
by cygnus from 0x10000000 to 0x10000,
which was the original value was wondering if anyone knew why this changed
occurred, and if undoing the change is I did will
cause any problems?

Thank you,
Ronen Grosman
