llvm dev - May 2011 - [LLVMdev] compiling with libstdc++.a that "could not read symbol"

Hi there,

I have a question on my linux box where I cant link properly. I've tried
configure option --enable-shared or --disable-shared.
The following are the message I got. Is there anything I can do to fix this
linking/lib problem?
thanks in advance,
Tim

ps.

libstdc++.a wasn't built with -fPIC, so can't be linked with when
building
a shared library (in this case LLVMHello.so).  So this looks like a problem
with your GCC installation, not with LLVM.  I expect you to have the same
problem when building any shared library that needs to link with libstdc++.

Ciao, Duncan.
