            Bug ID: 22655
           Summary: gcc unable to compile assembly with -nostdlib
           Product: binutils
           Version: 2.29
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: ld
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: calculuswhiz at gmail dot com
  Target Milestone: ---

I'm trying to compile this pure x64 program to an ELF.
Source:
https://github.com/calculuswhiz/Assembly-Syntax-Definition/blob/master/test/quine.sx.

I use this:
gcc -nostdlib quine.sx
And this:
gcc -nostdlib -fPIC quine.sx

But it always just gives me this:
/usr/bin/ld: /tmp/cca3rc8T.o: relocation R_X86_64_32S against `.text' can not
be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC
/usr/bin/ld: final link failed: Nonrepresentable section on output
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

I know for sure this worked in the past (Last I know for sure was on 28Jan17).

However, compiling this 32-bit code still works:
https://github.com/calculuswhiz/Assembly-Syntax-Definition/blob/master/test/quine32.sx

Using:
gcc -nostdlib -m32 quine32.sx

What's going on?
