Cannot export etext:symbol not find

[Yingping Zhang <yzhang at hum dot capsl dot udel dot edu>]

Hello all,

Could someone help me?
When I used Gcc to compile programs on cygwin, I encountered some
problems. To simplify the question, I just use a "hello.c" to replace all
programs and I get the same error report. What I did and got is :

1. I used follow command to compile "hello.c" and get a "hello.o", and it
is OK.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

cc1plus:warning:-fPIC ignored for target(all code is position independent)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

2. I tried to link it but I got some error reports:
Cannot export etext: symbol not foun
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

like follow:

./osprey1.0/targia32_arm_nodebug/targ_info/arm.so -o be.so -lm -ldl
Cannot export etext: symbol not foun

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

When I did not include the arm.so then it is fine. When I red the arm.so
I find etext's define in arm.so is empty and I could not find where it is
define and I don't know how to correct it. If there is any way I can just
use the define of system for etext rather than of the programs or I can
avoid the errors with some options? Could anybody give a hint. Thank you
very much.

Ying
