[parisc-linux] Parse error when compiling glibc. binutils bug ?

[Kaj-Michael Lang]

I'm trying to compile glibc 2.2.4+plus all the debian patches I could find.
I'm using the
latest H. J. Lu binutils (2.11.92.0.12.3). The error is this:

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [sysdeps/../libc.so] Error 1

and the lines around 145 in libc.so.lds looks like this:

    KEEP (*crtbegin.o(.ctors))
    /* We don't want to include the .ctor section from
       from the crtend.o file until after the sorted ctors.
       The .ctor section from the crtend file contains the
       end of ctors marker and it must be last */
    KEEP (*(EXCLUDE_FILE (*crtend.o ) .ctors))
    KEEP (*(SORT(.ctors.*)))
    KEEP (*(.ctors))
  }
   .dtors         :
  {/usr/lib/gcc-lib/hppa-linux/3.0.2/../../../../hppa-linux/bin/ld: BFD

    KEEP (*crtbegin.o(.dtors))
    KEEP (*(EXCLUDE_FILE (*crtend.o ) .dtors))
    KEEP (*(SORT(.dtors.*)))
    KEEP (*(.dtors))
  }

145 is the line with the first assertion fail.

Does anyone know what causes it ? Is there a fix ?
