Hi All,
While building eglibc for powerpc, I encountered linking error
when using the following option-groups.config:
OPTION_EGLIBC_BSD = n
OPTION_EGLIBC_CXX_TESTS = n
OPTION_EGLIBC_CATGETS = n
OPTION_EGLIBC_LOCALES = n
OPTION_EGLIBC_LOCALE_CODE = n
OPTION_EGLIBC_STREAMS = n
The error is:
/home/jwboyer/src/eglibc-build/libc_pic.os: In function `__dcigettext':

If I simply set OPTION_EGLIBC_LOCALES_CODE=y, then it appears to
build and link just fine. I haven't debugged it further yet, but
it would seem the __libc_setlocale_lock code should probably be
protected by an ifdef of some kind.
The following patch allowed the build to complete. I haven't tested this
beyond building, and I'm not entirely sure this is the proper fix.
Comments welcome.
