#37839: webkit-gtk: ld: scattered reloc r_address too large
--------------------------+------------------------
 Reporter:  ryandesign@…  |      Owner:  jeremyhu@…
     Type:  defect        |     Status:  new
 Priority:  Normal        |  Milestone:
Component:  ports         |    Version:  2.1.2
 Keywords:  powerpc       |       Port:  webkit-gtk
--------------------------+------------------------
 After patching it to remove the assertion that triggered #35989, webkit-
 gtk fails to build on PowerPC G4 on Leopard with this message:

 {{{
 ld: scattered reloc r_address too large
 }}}

 I see that GHCi had this problem, and fixed it by using the .a files:
 http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/3260

 In case it matters, ld64 @97.17_2+llvm31 is installed and active.

 It builds fine on Leopard i386.
