Re: automake/472: toolchain issues when building *.o files from *.S files

[Stepan Kasal]

Hello,

regarding the problem:

> gcc  -g -O2 -c libnr/have_mmx.S
> [...]
> ar cru [...] libnr/have_mmx.o [...]
> ar: libnr/have_mmx.o: No such file or directory

The problem could be fixed by adding option
        -o libnr/have_mmx.o
to the gcc.

Attached please find a patch, which should do this
(there are two versions, for 1.9 and for CVS HEAD).
The patch is not tested.

(It should be possible to apply the 1.9 patch directly to the installed
/usr/bin/automake script.)

BTW: *.S will mean _preprocessed_ assembler in automake-1.10.  So if this
is not your case, you should rather use *.s for asm sources.

HTH,
        Stepan Kasal
