I have 2 directories: a1 and b1
Directory b1 depends on directory a1
Using directory a1, I create a1.lib
Using directory b1, I create b1.lib

Now, using a1 and b1, I create a shared object ab1.so
I've been able to build ab1.so just fine. I made an update to file b1.c
and am now getting a ton of relocation truncated to fit: R_SPARC_GOT13
errors and don't know why. The change I made is nothing out of the
ordinary, just a few more if statements to a function.

I'm building on Solaris 7, gcc 2.95.2
This same code compiles just fine under RedHat9 and Suse9.3.

Anyone have any suggestions as to how to fix this?

Thank you.

Because your code or data size has increased.

Read "man cc" or "info gcc", and pay attention to -Kpic/-KPIC or
-fpic/-fPIC description, then replace '-[Kf]pic' with '-[Kf]PIC'
on you compile and link lines.
