After I submitted
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2011-04/msg02422.html, Rong Xu noted
that the resulting sources, if configured --with-pic, would not
actually build properly due to missing __i686.get_pc_thunk.bx (due to
my renaming that to __x86...).

While that issue was exposed by my change, in that configuration, in
summary my change exposed a latent issue in morestack.S.
(Callers of __i686.get_pc_thunk.bx (etc.) are also supposed to define
those functions -- because who knows whether the other objects they're
linked against will provide them.)

So, I've added the __i686.get_pc_thunk.bx function (as generated by
current GCC) to libgcc/config/i386/morestack.S.  (I also added __ELF__
#ifdefs and a .size directive for the function, following the apparent
conventions in the file.)


bootstrapped (C only) on Ubuntu Lucid x86-64, and ran -m32/-m64 tests
for compilers configured as normal, and also --with-pic.
No regressions before/after.


Ian, OK for trunk?

No "libgcc" in libgcc/ChangeLog.

This is OK.

It is also OK if you s/__i686/__x86/ to correspond to your earlier
change.  Either way is OK.

Thanks.

Fixed, sorry.  (That's what I get for pasting from svn status output.  8-)

Well, that change is not in trunk.
Should that change move to trunk, yes, it's appropriate to change this
as well (though strictly not *necessary*).
(On the google branches, my plan was to rename, yes.)
