Re: Compaq UNIX 4.0 multi-language-branch

Hai ,

I checked it with compaq for  it is actually a bug in compaq cxx 
compiler(6.2-024) . They have fixed it . The way of passing linker flag to 
the compiler is -Wl . The fix i have sent it make it -WL which is wrong . 
Can you tell me the status of  patch that support -export-symbol  option . I 
think that should work fine . But with the current libtoll and cxx to work 
together rpath should be passed directly . ie instead of saying
hardcode_libdir_flag_spec='${wl}-rpath ${wl}$libdir'

if should have
if os other that osf
hardcode_libdir_flag_spec='${wl}-rpath ${wl}$libdir'
else
hardcode_libdir_flag_spec='-rpath $libdir'
