This commit was manufactured by cvs2svn to create tag

'RELENG_2_2_5_RELEASE'.

This commit was manufactured to restore the state of the 2.2.5-RELEASE image.
Releases prior to 5.3-RELEASE are omitting the secure/ and crypto/ subdirs.

Sync with -current.

1997-08-08T02:18:14+00:00

Support for .weak (in addition to the N_INDR stab) for gcc/g++. Also deal

1996-10-01T01:22:51+00:00

with the -R option and store the path in the dynamic header when specified.
The $LD_RUN_PATH environment variable is not checked yet.

While here, split up the code a bit more to enable more selective replacing
of GPL'ed components that are linked with ld.so with others.

General -Wall warning cleanup, part I.

Submitted-By: Kent Vander Velden

Fix checks for open() failing. open() may successfully return 0.

ld.c:
Fix a an error message that said that open() failed after fopen() failed.

Remove trailing whitespace.

Back out my change to enforce command line linker order due to

1995-04-07T05:08:28+00:00

underlying bugs which are caused by mixing static/shared libraries with
this change in place.

The shlib code is not capable of supporting this feature in it's present
state and will need significant modifications in order to do so.

Modify the default behavior of the linker to no longer prefer static

1995-03-22T19:38:07+00:00

members over shared library members.  This modification causes the linker
to use the first definition it sees for a symbol instead of having
priorities based on the library type.  This modification should allow
gdb to compile again.

  Email conversation with Paul Kranenbury, but implemented completely by
  me.  If it doesn't work, it's my fault not his.

Weak symbol support from NetBSD. This should bring us in sync with the

1995-03-04T17:49:20+00:00

NetBSD ld code except for local changes for dlopen() and friends and
the hashing on the minor value of the shlibs.  We should be binary
compatible now with all their libraries.

Updated to recent version of Paul K.'s shlib code. This code has better

1994-12-23T22:31:35+00:00

warning handling and allows for link-time warnings with a modified
version of gas.

Note: Not all of the newer bits were updated such as some of the non-x86
machine-dependant code is relevant to FreeBSD right now.
