Subject: ocamlc: Use -output-complete-exe instead of -custom From: Richard W.M. Jones rjones@redhat.com Wed Jul 12 22:37:58 2023 +0100 Date: Wed Jul 12 22:40:27 2023 +0100: Git: dc80dbbef60d5d81a7d4321683a8c7305dc04972 This prevents bytecode executables from being broken by strip and similar tools. Note this is incompatible with OCaml < 4.10 (so breaks RHEL 8). However this only affects bytecode builds which we prefer not to use in RHEL. I left the old option in the Makefile so that it could be uncommented by someone using older OCaml + bytecode. We need this for OCaml 5.0 since that drops native backends (temporarily) for riscv64, s390x and ppc64le. diff --git a/src/Makefile.am b/src/Makefile.am index 5b07e5d..5a1c671 100644 --- a/src/Makefile.am +++ b/src/Makefile.am @@ -132,7 +132,8 @@ OCAMLFLAGS = -g -warn-error +C+D+E+F+L+M+P+S+U+V+X+Y+Z-3 if !HAVE_OCAMLOPT OBJECTS = $(BOBJECTS) BEST = c -OCAMLFLAGS += -custom +#OCAMLFLAGS += -custom # for OCaml < 4.10 +OCAMLFLAGS += -output-complete-exe else OBJECTS = $(XOBJECTS) BEST = opt
