compilation failure with gcc 4.0 on OS X 10.5 and earlier #103

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. configure and make on OS X 10.5 or earlier

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected successful compile but got "error: can't find a register in class 
'BREG' while reloading 'asm'"; see https://trac.macports.org/ticket/32825

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
webp 0.1.3, OS X 10.4 or 10.5, Apple gcc 4.0.1, MacPorts 2.0.3

Please provide any additional information below.
It compiles fine on OS X 10.6 with its default Apple gcc 4.2 compiler.

Compiling on OS X 10.5 with the compiler changed from its default gcc-4.0 to 
gcc-4.2 works fine. This is not a usable workaround for OS X 10.4, because OS X 
10.4's Xcode does not include gcc-4.2.

A Stack Overflow post 
(http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4010069/problem-on-mac-cant-find-a-register-
in-class-breg-while-reloading-asm) suggests the problem could be related to 
compiling with "-mdynamic-no-pic" and "-fno-pic" would help. Adding "-fno-pic" 
to CFLAGS does not help. Adding "-mdynamic-no-pic" to CFLAGS gets further on 
Tiger, but then fails with:

:info:build ld: .libs/libwebp.lax/libwebpdecode.a/libwebpdecode_la-buffer.o has 
local relocation entries in non-writable section (__TEXT,__text)
:info:build /usr/libexec/gcc/i686-apple-darwin8/4.0.1/libtool: internal link

I'll have to look into this. Building on 10.5 was never tested.

I should add that it only seems to be a problem on Intel Macs. Using gcc-4.0 on 
10.4 or 10.5 on a PowerPC Mac builds fine. So that's a relief. All Intel Macs 
are capable of being upgraded to at least 10.6 so there's little excuse for 
them not to.

Addresses this specific issue. The build works with makefile.unix and 
CC=gcc-4.0. The autoconf is broken currently for another reason.

Fixes the dylib build.
