I don't see why they should be broken for shared libraries, but what
do I know? ;-)
Libtool 1.2.X uses the C compiler to link C code. Older versions of
libtool would often use the linker directly. Maybe your old GCC has
problem with linking a shared library. However, the problem could be
something else such as the C compiler was built under an older version
of the OS and is therefore using the wrong API headers, or some
behavior of the OS has changed.
This is the wrong list to be inquiring about GCC bugs, and if you
inquire on a GCC mailing list, they will likely advise you to simply
use the latest GCC release.
