22 nobody yet? Well, I've been trying several combinations of the programs,
23 and they still all fail. I've had success with binutils-2.17, with gcc
24 3.4.1-r3, 3.4.4-r1 and 4.1.1-r3, but no luck with uclibc.
25
26 I've tried uclibc 0.9.28-r2, 0.9.28-r1 and 0.9.28 (as well as 0.9.27
27 that apparently does not support sparc?), and every time they fail on
28 the same problem, complaining about duplicate "_start" symbol in ldso.c.
29 I've attached my uclibc emerge log, hopefully someone can propose
30 something?
31
32 thank you,
33 Dimitris
