| Summary | 0000398: mercury_compile.exe fails to link on Cygwin64 / MinGW64 with GCC 4.9.X | ||||||||
| Description | Building the compiler on Cygwin64 and some versions of MinGW64 results in the compiler executable failing to link. The error is as follows: top_level_init.o:top_level_init.c:(.rdata$.refptr._bss_start__[.refptr._bss_start__]+0x0): undefined reference to `_bss_start__' top_level_init.o:top_level_init.c:(.rdata$.refptr._data_start__[.refptr._data_start__]+0x0): undefined reference to `_data_start__' top_level_init.o:top_level_init.c:(.rdata$.refptr._bss_end__[.refptr._bss_end__]+0x0): undefined reference to `_bss_end__' top_level_init.o:top_level_init.c:(.rdata$.refptr._data_end__[.refptr._data_end__]+0x0): undefined reference to `_data_end__' | ||||||||
| Additional Information | This as reported on the users list at <http://www.mercurylang.org/list-archives/developers/2015-November/016491.html>. I have noticed it myself on Cygwin64 (using Cygwin GCC 4.9.3 and binutils 2.25). Ian has reported it as occurring with MSYS2/MinGW64 GCC 4.9.2 and binutils 2.25. Using MSYS2/MinGW64 GCC 5.2 does work (on my machine), so it may be that there is a problem with GCC 4.9.X on 64-bit Windows. (I haven't tried GCC 5 on Cygwin64 yet as it would need to be built from source.) | ||||||||

The same issue occurs with GCC 5.4.0 on 64-bit Cygwin. |

The issue has been fixed in Boehm upstream. <https://github.com/ivmai/bdwgc/commit/4e24d219d29abb2b111bb9a9ccb13c3f149a855a> We will need to backport that change (or upgrade our version of the collector). |

This has been resolved by upgrading the Boehm GC to version 7.6. I have tested it with rotd 2016-09-27. |
