Re: [PATCH] PPC64 elf configure


Is there a reason this is impossible on PPC64?  I would think that values
relative to the TOC address could work similarly to how they do on x86.  
Is this not doable, or is it just that the compiler doesn't do it?  If the
latter, ideally GCC should learn to do it, and then we should write a
configure check that ascertains if the compiler is in fact doing it.

I'm making your change for now anyway, since it's the safe default.


Thanks,
Roland
