[Gcl-devel] Unrelocated symbol: __aeabi_unwind_cpp_pr1

[Jerry James]

Hi,

I attempted to build gcl 2.6.11 for Fedora tonight.  The builds for
i386 and x86_64 seem fine, but the 32-bit ARM build failed, like so:

Finished compiling /builddir/build/BUILD/gcl/unixport/../pcl/gcl_pcl_pkg.o.

make: *** [unixport/saved_pcl_gcl] Error 2

A little web searching revealed that the symbol __aeabi_unwind_cpp_pr1
is defined in libgcc.  It is one of the exception handling personality
routines, and has reloc type R_ARM_NONE.  What does this assertion
failure imply, and what can I do to fix it?

Thank you,
