After several years of good service my Developer Tools installation on MacOS X 10.3.7 has broken badly. Any attempt to link object files results in errors like these: for C code ld: foo.o stray relocation PPC_RELOC_PAIR entry (608) in section (__TEXT,__text) for C++ code ld: foo.o malformed object (stray relocation PAIR entry (19) in section (__TEXT,__eh_frame)) I have replaced ar, as, ld and reinstalled the compiler. I have also tried gcc 3.1, 3.3 and 4.0. I even tried repairing permissions. None of these has made any difference. The problem does not seem to be with ld as it will relink previously compiled object files and I have tried both the version from Xcode 1.5 and the new one from November 2004 gcc update. I seem to be able to compile and run trivial code like 'HelloWorld' but not much more. I would really appreciate any suggestions as I have completely run out of ideas, and don't really understand the error. This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com
