When attempting to use buildrom I'm seeing the " undefined reference to `__stack_chk_fail'" message. I see that this was a topic of discussion back in January but haven't found anything to say how or if this was resolved. At the risk of scratching an old itch I have to ask if this was resolved or if a solution to the problem is still needed.
I'm building on Ubuntu 6.10 which installs a gcc configured for stack checking. I know about the -fno-stack-protector option when compiling and have used this as a work-around but I'm thinking that if this was/is a problem then other host distro dependent issues perhaps will or still be lurking to catch someone.
Is it a viable solution to have buildrom build a cross-tool chain? Imho: This would be best in order to have repeatable results. Having config options to control the gcc and binutils versions cross-host build repeatability would be improved.
