             Bug #: 14792
           Summary: Binutils 2.23's version of ld frees an invalid pointer
                    when configuring GCC
           Product: binutils
           Version: 2.23
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: ld
        AssignedTo: address@hidden
        ReportedBy: address@hidden
    Classification: Unclassified


After building a mingw-w64 cross compiler with binutils 2.22.90 or binutils
2.23 and using it to build GCC's prerequisites, GCC's configure fails when
checking for the correct versions of gmp, mpfr, and mpc, saying ld freed an
invalid pointer. What follows is the error and some context around it:

checking for the correct version of gmp.h... yes
checking for the correct version of mpfr.h... yes
checking for the correct version of mpc.h... yes
checking for the correct version of the gmp/mpfr/mpc libraries... *** glibc
detected ***

configure: error: Building GCC requires GMP 4.2+, MPFR 2.3.1+ and MPC 0.8.0+.
Try the --with-gmp, --with-mpfr and/or --with-mpc options to specify
their locations.  Source code for these libraries can be found at
their respective hosting sites as well as at
ftp://gcc.gnu.org/pub/gcc/infrastructure/.  See also
http://gcc.gnu.org/install/prerequisites.html for additional info.  If
you obtained GMP, MPFR and/or MPC from a vendor distribution package,
make sure that you have installed both the libraries and the header
files.  They may be located in separate packages.
