Bug#317674: libc6: can't link a program with -static

[Andre Woebbeking <Woebbeking@web.de>]

Package: libc6
Version: 2.3.5-1
Severity: important


Hi,

I'm trying to build Valgrind 3 on x86_64 but it's not possible to build
with -static:

usr/bin/ld: __libc_errno: TLS definition in
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.0.1/../../../../lib64/libc.a(errno.o)
section .tbss mismatches non-TLS reference in
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.0.1/../../../../lib64/libc.a(check_fds.o)
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.0.1/../../../../lib64/libc.a: could not
read symbols: Bad value

If you need a testcase then try

#include <stdio.h>

int main()
{
    printf("test");
    return 0;
}

with gcc -o bla -static bla.c.


Cheers,
Andre
