           Summary: 'ld' looks for stuff in default places despite
                    -nostdlib on command line
           Product: binutils
           Version: 2.21
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: ld
        AssignedTo: address@hidden
        ReportedBy: address@hidden


Created attachment 5234
  --> http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=5234
the 'conftest.log' file

I have built glibc-2.13 which contains a number of crt*.o files:

"
find /mnt/sdb8/sergei/AFSWD_debug/install/glibc-2.13/ -name "crt*.o"
/mnt/sdb8/sergei/AFSWD_debug/install/glibc-2.13/lib/crt1.o
/mnt/sdb8/sergei/AFSWD_debug/install/glibc-2.13/lib/crti.o
/mnt/sdb8/sergei/AFSWD_debug/install/glibc-2.13/lib/crtn.o
address@hidden:~>  
"

- I guess they are in the right place.

When I run the following command:

"

containing among other things

-Wl,-L/mnt/sdb8/sergei/AFSWD_debug/install/gettext-0.18/lib
-Wl,-L/mnt/sdb8/sergei/AFSWD_debug/install/glibc-2.13/lib

, i.e. path to the crt*.o files, I'm getting in to be attached 'conftest.log'
file the following:

"
address@hidden:~/junk> cat -n conftest.log | grep /usr/lib
    14 
SEARCH_DIR("/mnt/sdb8/sergei/AFSWD_debug/install/binutils-2.21/i686-pc-linux-gnu/lib");
SEARCH_DIR("/mnt/sdb8/sergei/AFSWD_debug/install/binutils-2.21/lib");
SEARCH_DIR("/usr/local/lib"); SEARCH_DIR("/lib"); SEARCH_DIR("/usr/lib");
   208  attempt to open /usr/lib/crt1.o succeeded
   209  /usr/lib/crt1.o
   210  attempt to open /usr/lib/crti.o succeeded
   211  /usr/lib/crti.o
   261  attempt to open /usr/lib/crtn.o succeeded
   262  /usr/lib/crtn.o
address@hidden:~/junk>     
",

i.e. the crt*.o files are taken from default rather than provided by me places.

OTOH, the linker does look for other stuff in provided by me places, e.g.:

"
address@hidden:~/junk> cat -n conftest.log | grep succeeded | grep glibc-2.13
   242  attempt to open
/mnt/sdb8/sergei/AFSWD_debug/install/glibc-2.13/lib/libc.so succeeded
   245  attempt to open
/mnt/sdb8/sergei/AFSWD_debug/install/glibc-2.13/lib/libc.so.6 succeeded
   247  attempt to open
/mnt/sdb8/sergei/AFSWD_debug/install/glibc-2.13/lib/libc_nonshared.a succeeded
   249  attempt to open
/mnt/sdb8/sergei/AFSWD_debug/install/glibc-2.13/lib/ld-linux.so.2 succeeded

".
