[parisc-linux] xfree86 build problem

[Grant Grundler <grundler@puffin.external.hp.com>]

hi folks,

The xfree86 build dies with the following errors:
...

make[3]: Entering directory `/home/src/xfree86-4.0.2/build-tree/xc/lib/GL/glu/libutil'

GL/glu/libutil/error.o: ELF 32-bit MSB relocatable, PA-RISC, version 1, not stripped


1) error.o was built with:
gcc -c -O2 -g -ansi -pedantic -Wall -Wpointer-arith -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Wredundant-decls -Wnested-externs  -I../include    -I../../../../include   -I../../../../include/GL  -I../../../.. -I../../../../exports/include  -Dlinux  -D_POSIX_SOURCE -D_POSIX_C_SOURCE=2 -D_BSD_SOURCE -D_SVID_SOURCE -D_GNU_SOURCE -DX_LOCALE   -DFUNCPROTO=15 -DNARROWPROTO   -DNDEBUG  error.c
   Is the -fPIC missing here?
   If so, why does "file" say it's relocatable?

   I rebuilt error.o and glue.o by hand with -fPIC, rebuilt the libutil.a,
   and then the build proceeded (until it hit the next problem).

2) c++ isn't returning the error reported by collect2
   Fortunately the build soon dies since the expected product
   doesn't exist. Known problem?
