don't call it according to the runtime specification and especially
WRT to gp this can cause trouble. The gcc 3.3.1 import broke the
ia64 runtime because the compiler saved gp prior to us being able
to set it properly. Restoring gp after the calls would then invalidate
gp and cause segmentation faults later on.
By rewriting _start() as an assembly function, we also avoided even
more gcc dependences, by trying to use gcc specific features to work
around the problem.
This version of _start() does not reference _DYNAMIC. We register the
cleanup function when it's a non-NULL pointer. The kernel will always
pass a NULL pointer and dynamic linkers may pass a non-NULL pointer.
The machine independent code to set __progname now unfortunately is
written in assembly. So be it.
Get rid of the INTERNALSTATICLIB knob and just use plain INTERNALLIB.
INTERNALLIB now means to build static library only and don't install
anything. Added a NOINSTALLLIB knob for libpam/modules. To not
build any library at all, just do not set LIB.
Also, make an internal _getprogname() that is used only inside
libc. For libc, getprogname(3) is a weak symbol in case a
function of the same name is defined in userland.
when using the egcs and gcc-devel ports, along with GCC built from stock
public FSF sources. With out this change, FreeBSD will be removed from
the list of systems GCC 3.0 must be evaluated on before release. With
the effort some of us put into getting FreeBSD on this list, we should
not turn this effort into a waste, else we might not be worth fighting
for in the future. (note that Alpha and IA-64 versions of crt{i,n}.S
are needed)
* Switch from our own crt{begin,in} to those created from GCC's crtstuff.c.
This will allow us to switch to DWARF2 exceptions in the future, along with
staying in sync with any future GCC requirements.
* Break out our ELF branding bits into a seperate file. Currently this
is now included by our crt1.c files (since this functionality was part of
our native crtbegin.c). Later crtbrand.o will be merged in the creation
of crti.o.
