[Mono-dev] Problems cross compiling Mono itself for ARM with uClibc

[freaky001 at gmx.net]

Hello,

now I (hopefully) have fixed one problem located in the configure - script in line 3525:

eval "echo \"\$as_me:$LINENO: $ac_try_echo\"") >&5
  # 20080319: Thomas
  #(eval "$ac_compiler -V >&5") 2>&5
  (eval "$ac_compiler -v >&5") 2>&5
  ac_status=$?
  echo "$as_me:$LINENO: \$? = $ac_status" >&5
  (exit $ac_status); }

I've lower cased the "v" in the compiler argument. Now, one step aheaed, I got the following message (see attachment: config.log, line: 111 and following).

I checked the paths of libc.so.0:

# pwd
/usr/local/gcc-4.1.2-uClibc-0.9.29-xscale/lib

# ls -al | grep libuClibc-0.9.29.so 
lrwxrwxrwx  1 thomas thomas      19 2008-02-25 10:00 libc.so.0 -> libuClibc-0.9.29.so
-rw-r--r--  1 thomas thomas  314560 2007-09-04 14:03 libuClibc-0.9.29.so


As you can see libc.so.0 exists on my system. 

My actual configure script is also attached.

Bye,
Thomas
