| the instructions for building current contained in the archives have got
| a bit muddied over the versions. the last one in current-users.21 is what
| I'm assuming most people will use (I did)
|
|
| If you detect problems linking, it will be during the build of gas. At
| that stage, simply remaking/installing crt0.o from src/lib/csu/i386 is
| NOT adequate, since you potentially have the wrong ld as well. You can't
| even build ld against the new crt0.o because... the new ld demands an
| instance of __DYNAMIC and refuses to link the ld.
|
| you have to go back to the NetBSD-0.9 binary ld before you can install
| the NEW ld linked against the appropriate crt0.o. Then you can proceed
| as per the instructions.

	i don't believe that this is true.  if you just go and compile
	the crt0.o without the -DDYNAMIC in the makefile, everything
	should work fine.  i believe that's what i ended up doing when
	i screwed up the first time ;-)
