Cross-compiled glibc causing build errors

Question

I have built glibc 2.17 on Chrome OS after chrooting to Ubuntu(raring). Glibc had the --with-headers configure param specified to extracted Chrome OS kernel headers.

Then I installed the results into Chrome OS's /usr/local directory using DESTDIR. I also removed files conflicting with already present glibc, and symlinked the present ones into my new /usr/local/ dir. It worked on i686 kernel, but now that I'm running x86_64(and rebuilt everything under that), this happens while trying to build openssl on Chrome OS:

    libcrypto.a(dso_dlfcn.o): In function `dlfcn_globallookup':
    dso_dlfcn.c:(.text+0x11): warning: Using 'dlopen' in statically linked applications  requires at runtime the shared libraries from the glibc version used for linking

    collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
    make[4]: *** [link_a.gnu] Error 1

I tried rebuilding binutils with -fPIC, but still no luck.

Answer 1

The error states that libdl needs to be recompiled with -fPIC. That's part of libc, not binutils, at least on XUbuntu 13.04
