Comment 6 for bug 254790

I can still reproduce the problem: it happens just as I described in the original report in a freshly-built amd64 jaunty chroot. Are you testing this on amd64? What output do you get from objdump?

Is there any reason you'd expect the problem to have gone away? dietlibc has not been changed since Ubuntu hardy but gcc presumably still adds the -Wl,-z,relro option. As far as I can remember, this option is not applicable to static executables. Maybe it could be considered a linker bug that it does not ignore the option when producing a static executable.
