Package: gcc
Version: 4:3.3.3-3
Severity: important
[ Marked as important since this vile wrapper has permeated testing
already. ]
/usr/bin/gcc on the sparc architecture is really a link to a C wrapper
that calls gcc-3.3 with either -m64 or -m32 depending on the native
architecture, sparc64 or sparc32 respectively.
This is well intended, but the leading issue with this is that mklibs
will try to reduce 32-bit libraries in a 64-bit way, and cause it to
require an invocation under 'sparc32' for it to work right now.
It also caused many problems with some of the assumptions I made with my
kernel packages because it set its own compiler flags silently and I
hadn't found out. Some objects would get compiled as 64-bit objects on a
32-bit build (no idea why, since it is supposed to pass -m32), but after
I removed the gcc-wrapper diversion everything worked.
I suggest that this wrapper be removed as it does more harm than good,
and people who are interested in 64-bit libraries for SPARC are probably
able to figure out the compiler flags themselves.
