             Bug #: 14272
           Summary: gold links, but bfd fails with: hidden symbol
                    `.LTHUNK116.32732' isn't defined
           Product: binutils
           Version: 2.22
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: ld
        AssignedTo: address@hidden
        ReportedBy: address@hidden
    Classification: Unclassified


ld.bfd spits out a ton of these:


`_ZThn12_N5boost16exception_detail10clone_implINS0_19error_info_injectorINS_13property_tree14ptree_bad_pathEEEED1Ev'

And then the error:
...binutils-2.22/bin/ld: .../jaguar_db: hidden symbol `.LTHUNK116.32732' isn't
defined

Switching the linker to gold fixes this, but causes other problems for me (see
bug #14271).
ln -sf $INSTALLATION/binutils-2.22/bin/ld.bfd
$INSTALLATION/binutils-2.22/bin/ld

Boost was built using -flto.  The standard libs aren't.
GNU ld (GNU Binutils) 2.22
gcc (GCC) 4.7.0
boost 1.49
Linux xmercd32 2.6.18-92.1.18.el5PAE #1 SMP Wed Nov 5 09:14:56 EST 2008 i686

Are you guys planning a release anytime soon?  Should I try your HEAD version?
