[oe-users] rm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-as: unrecognized option `-Qy' on x86_64

[Russ Ferriday]

Hello, all!

I hit a problem when building on Linux 2.6.21-1.3194.fc7 - FC7  
running on XEON (x86_64 architecture).

The build runs normally when I use the same settings and versions of  
OE and fresh monotone repositories on a machine with i686  
architecture. (FC7 2.6.22.1-32.fc6 running on Parallels on a  
MacBookPro).

The OE log trace is below this text, and the relevant line is:

      /home/oe/c/tmp/cross/bin/arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-as:  
unrecognized option `-Qy'

I think the problem is that the arm assembler is being invoked where  
the native (host) assembler should be used. This is the first point  
that I'd like someone who has been down this path to validate.

I think I'm not the first OE user to hit the issue, as you can see in  
the comments to this GCC bug:

     http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=29780

Which refers to this posting :

     http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2006-07/msg00533.html

When I follow that recommendation, and do...

   $ cd tmp/work/armv4t-angstrom-linux-gnueabi/gcc-cross- 
initial-4.1.2-r4/gcc-4.1.2/build.x86_64-linux.arm-angstrom-linux- 
gnueabi/gcc/
   $ mv as as.HOLD

... I can make more progress on the build, though I have not yet tested.

I hit the same problem with a later target, which I fixed in the same  
way, using:

   $ cd tmp/work/armv4t-angstrom-linux-gnueabi/gcc-cross-4.1.2-r4/ 
gcc-4.1.2/build.x86_64-linux.arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi/gcc
   $ mv as as.HOLD

Assuming that GCC is the culprit, and may not change soon, should I  
create a platform dependent task to fix this at install time for this  
single platform?

Or am I on the wrong track completely?
