Package: binutils
Version: 2.5.2
Revision: 3

Linking a C or C++ program for profiling causes `ld' to die with
	ld: Output file requires shared library `libc.so.4'
	gcc: Internal compiler error: program ld got fatal signal 6
as soon as a library is involved. A simple program `foo.c' can be linked with
	gcc -o foo foo.o -pg
but as soon as, say, a math.h function and the `-lm' switch are added the
fatal error can be reproduced. I use the most recent gcc and friends from
debian-0.93/binary/devel.

I don't think it has to do with profiling.  I just got the following
error.  I am NOT linking with "-pg".

   diannau% make
   gcc -g -g -O2 -Wall -D_POSIX_SOURCE -o xp scanargs.o setools.o
   oldtools.o \
           nrtools.o nrutil.o xp.c -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lsx -lXaw -lXmu -lXt
   -lX11 -lm
   ld: Output file requires shared library `libc.so.4'
   gcc: Internal compiler error: program ld got fatal signal 6
   make: *** [xp] Error 1

It's strange because other programs I've written compile just fine
under Debian.  :-/  I'm using lots of math functions, though.  Perhaps
you are right about it having something to do with libm.

I just tried turning off debugging altogether.  My code compiles just
fine.  If I turn debugging back on (by passing a single "-g" to gcc),
I get:

   ld: Output file requires shared library `libc.so.4'
   gcc: Internal compiler error: program ld got fatal signal 6

Not good.
