crosstool-ng: patches/glibc/2.7/140-glibc-2.7-configure-apple-as.patch@8a72f9bcf675

Using SOCKS 4/5 proxy is no easy task:
- a machine may well be able to reach the proxy, even if it is not on the same sub-net(s) as the machine itself (absolutely legitimate)
- tsocks.conf needs a list of so-called 'local' networks that can be reached without the need for a SOCKS connection
- SOCKS proxies are expected to be in 'local' networks
- there is absolutely NO way to tell what networks are local, besides the sub-net(s) the machine is in

Therefore, appropriate configuration of SOCKS 4/5 configuration is really complex, and attempts to correctly overcome this issue are doomed.

     4 The following makes it possible to configure glibc-2.3.2 on Mac OS X,

     5 where the assembler but doesn't understand the --version flag.

     7 Fixes the symptom

     8 checking whether ld is GNU ld... no

     9 checking for /usr/libexec/gcc/darwin/ppc/as... /usr/libexec/gcc/darwin/ppc/as

    10 checking version of /usr/libexec/gcc/darwin/ppc/as...

    11 <PAUSES HERE AND JUST SITS THERE DOING NOTHING>

    13 NOTE:  This patch should apparently be pushed upstream so we don't need to

    14 keep adding it here.
