http://bugs.gentoo.org/196245 http://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2006-05/msg00017.html Attached is a patch to add __attribute__ ((noinline)) to call_gmon_start. Without this patch, the sec script that processed initfini.s removes a part of inlined call_gmon_start, causing undefined label errors. This patch solves the problem by forcing gcc not to inline call_gmon_start with __attribute__ ((noinline)). Tested by building for arm-none-lixux-gnueabi. OK to apply?
