[CLN-list] Linking on Mac OS X

[Darren Bane]

Hi there,

I'm trying to build CLN 1.1.8 on a G4/Mac OS X 10.3.5 system with the 
XCode 1.5 tools (i.e. Apple's version of GCC 3.3 and the Mach linker).  
By disabling shared libraries, I've got quite far with this, up to 
linking the CLN test case, exam.  This gives unresolved externals 
ending with _ctorend and _dtorend.

I've tracked it down to the fact that each object in the library has a 
_XXX_[cd]torend symbol defined module-local (i.e. nm entry prefixed by 
"s").  However, each module has an unresolved XXX_[cd]torend symbol (nm 
entry prefixed by "U"), without the underscore prefix.

This is the CL_PROVIDE and CL_REQUIRE macros.  My include/cln/config.h 
has ASM_UNDERSCORE defined.  I tried to read the macro definition, but 
got lost.  Can anyone help?

I searched the archives for relevant information a few days ago and 
didn't find any.  They seem to have disappeared in the meantime???

Thanks in advance.
