System: NetBSD grog.cjones.org 1.5.1_ALPHA NetBSD 1.5.1_ALPHA (GROG) #0: Tue Mar 13 18:17:36 MST 2001 chris@grog.cjones.org:/usr/people/chris/work/stable/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/GROG i386


>Description:
The man page for apxs, from apache6-1.3.19, claims that it accepts
arguments of the form -Wl,-R/usr/local/lib.  However, apxs calls ld
directly, instead of running cc.  And ld, of course, doesn't like the
"-Wl," argument.

>How-To-Repeat:
The Makefile for mod_aolserver (aka pkgsrc/www/ap-aolserver) does this:

/usr/local/sbin/apxs -c -o mod_aolserver.so mod_aolserver.o ns_set.o tclset.o dstring.o tls.o modlog.o conn.o misc.o adp.o adpfancy.o str.o tclcmds.o tclmisc.o crypt.o htuu.o tclfile.o tclsock.o sock.o urlencode.o dbinit.o dbdrv.o dbutil.o dbtcl.o config.o quotehtml.o random.o mm_hash.o nsv.o postgres.o -L/usr/local/lib -lmm -lpq -L/usr/local/lib -Wl,-R/usr/local/lib -ltcl83   -lm

which apxs translates to this:

ld -shared -o mod_aolserver.so mod_aolserver.o ns_set.o tclset.o dstring.o tls.o modlog.o conn.o misc.o adp.o adpfancy.o str.o tclcmds.o tclmisc.o crypt.o htuu.o tclfile.o tclsock.o sock.o urlencode.o dbinit.o dbdrv.o dbutil.o dbtcl.o config.o quotehtml.o random.o mm_hash.o nsv.o postgres.o -L/usr/local/lib -lmm -lpq -L/usr/local/lib -Wl,-R/usr/local/lib -ltcl83 -lm 

>Fix:
In the case of mod_aolserver, I'm use Makefile magic to massage the
arguments to apxs.
