As I mentioned on IRC, but don't have time ATM to verify, I don't think a 'touch' of the ld.script is sufficient a test in this case since it's a call-if-changed thing so you'd have to modify ld.script. Can you do that and see if it's really a change? Thanks. -- Tom Rini http://gate.crashing.org/~trini/
