I think that's what I was referencing.  I just remember something
about "gcc 4+ doesn't like the generated code".  So I probably
overstated the case.  PLT really doesn't work with 4+ so it was moot
for me at that point.

However, when I say "undocumented" I mean that it's not in the "how to
build" document, not that it isn't the developer's database of issues.
