Bug#227906: libc6: Failed assertion in ld.so

[Vladimir Prus <ghost@cs.msu.su>]

Package: libc6
Version: 2.3.2.ds1-10
Severity: normal

Hello,
I have a small example where use of -static-libgcc and -Wl,-Bstatic
flags cause ld.so do assert.

I have file app.cpp containing
   
   int main() { return 0; }

and lib.cpp, which is empty. I compile them with

   g++ -o lib.so -shared -static-libgcc lib.cpp -Wl,-Bstatic
   g++ -o app app.cpp lib.so -static-libgcc -Wl,-Bstatic

and when I run "./app", I get:

    Inconsistency detected by ld.so: dl-fini.c: 66: _dl_fini: Assertion `i == _rtld_local._dl_nloaded' failed!

Also, when I remove -Wl,-Bstatic from the first command line, I get the
following error at runtime:

    ld.so: Incorrectly built binary which accesses errno or h_errno directly.
    ld.so: See /usr/share/doc/libc6/FAQ.gz.

Which is strange -- since the files do not use errno in any way.
