segfault in bfd_elf32_bfd_link_add_symbols (2.14.90.0.5)

[David Le Corfec]

Hi,

I encountered a segfault while linking 2 objects (from the i386 native
version of aros, http://www.aros.org).

The problem is really in libbfd as you'll see:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x400557c1 in bfd_elf32_bfd_link_add_symbols () from 
/usr/lib/libbfd-2.14.90.0.5.so
(gdb) bt
#0  0x400557c1 in bfd_elf32_bfd_link_add_symbols () from 
/usr/lib/libbfd-2.14.90.0.5.so
#1  0x08051fd5 in ?? ()
#2  0x080afe78 in ?? ()
#3  0x0809e980 in optind ()
#4  0xbffffb08 in ?? ()
#5  0x400ad6e0 in ?? () from /usr/lib/libbfd-2.14.90.0.5.so
#6  0x080ad158 in ?? ()

The 2 objects are at http://dlc.nerim.net/objs/
just doing "ld exec_library.o graphics_hidd.o" causes the segfaults with
"2.14.90.0.5 20030722 Debian GNU/Linux" but not with
"2.11.93.0.2 20020207 (RH7.3)" or "2.11.90.0.8 (RH7.2)"
(maybe I should submit a Debian bug too ?)

Maybe others could try to link and see if it fails for them too ?
Maybe some of you with a debugging version of libbfd and some
knowledge about the intrinsics of libbfd could give us hints/fixes ?

Thanks,
