So will
it link on OSX if I remove -nostartfiles?
i'd suggest copying what swh's makefile does, which is something
like this:
gcc -flat_namespace -undefined suppress -o .libs/ringmod_1188.so
-bundle .libs/ringmod_1188.o -lm -march=i686 -nostartfiles
clearly, i was talking out of my rear end about -nostartfiles
Thanks, unfortunately I don't feel much wiser now. The
developer.apple.com copy of the OSX ld man page simply says
-bundle Produce a mach-o bundle that has file type MH_BUNDLE.
It's a looong time ago I figured out those options, but if I remember
correctly it's required to let you build real .so files.
Because of the way the Mach kernel loads libraries, OSX libraries are
not generally Mach-O bundles (.so-s), which are what you need to
dynamically load objects. They're usually .dylib files - some other
sort or Mach object.
