[Bf-committers] OSX Mavericks 10.9 (mostly) success

[Jens Verwiebe]

Hi Jake

I investigated the ndof thingie and found following situation.

It seems that with clang, setting attributes leads to producing mangled additional (c++-)symbols:

$ clang++33 -c test.cc
$ objdump -t test.o | fgrep foo
0000000000000010 l     F .text  0000000000000006 _Z3foov
0000000000000000         *UND*  0000000000000000 foo

$ g++48 -c test.cc
$ objdump -t test.o | fgrep foo
0000000000000000 l     F .text  0000000000000006 foo
..not exactly our problem, but i think the same outcome.
I formerly simple circumvented this by just compiling ghost with llvm-gcc ( exception ).
For XCode5 dropped llvm-gcc complete, we are pushed to another solution, which could be 
Instead of using __attribute__((weak_import)) inside an extern "C" declaration, we
should move these availablility checks to a discrete c file.

I read clang trunk may already have a fix, whereas other say the issue still occures with -O2.

My conclusion: lest check if a discrete C format file works here. Not too complcated.

Can you or Mike try? I'am a bit short with time nowadays ...

Cheers ...Jens
