linker dies building GDB (ppc64)

[Manoj Iyer <manjo@austin.ibm.com>]

Hi all,

I am trying to build the CVS version of GDB 6.0.  I am trying to build
it as a 64bit binary on a powerpc 64 machine. The linker (collect2) seg
faults trying to link tclsh. Has anyone seen this before??. Here is the
linker message when it died.

gcc  tclAppInit.o
-L/home/manjo/project/gdb/config.patch/gdb_test/src/tcl/unix -ltcl8.4 -ldl
-lieee -lm \
        -Wl,-rpath,/usr/local/lib -o tclsh
collect2: ld terminated with signal 11 [Segmentation fault]
/usr/bin/ld:
