svn commit: r421598 - head/devel/powerpc64-gcc [breaks buildworld crossbuild for stable/11 -r306344]

[Mark Millard]

I've submitted bugzilla report 213014 for -r421598 blocking buildworld via powerpc-gcc for stable/11 -r306344 and that reverting to devel/powerpc64-gcc -r413189 not having the problem.

[The submittal is basically the material that I sent to some lists first.]

The actual error that the -r421598 based buildworld stops with is:

> iostream.cpp:(.text.startup+0x1c): call to `std::__1::ios_base::Init::Init()' lacks nop, can't restore toc; recompile with -fPIC

Not exactly obvious what is going on or why libc++ use would make such a difference.



Note: This was an amd64 -> powerpc64 cross build. [It will be a while before I've access to the powerpc64's again so I've no native test of this issue.]

Note: This was my first use of -r421598 after updating /usr/ports to pick it up and I've not tried any other specific FreeBSD variants for buildworld/buildkernel. The problem is not likely to be -r306344 of stable/11 specific but it is what I tested.

Note: I'd separately reverted devel/binutils and devel/powerpc64-binutils to avoid 2.27 --which fails to produce useful file according to a couple of folks reports for targeting powerpc64 with them mixed with various gcc/g++ versions not working.
