Juan has contributed a cool Makefile infrastructure that enables us to drop
static libraries completely:

Move shared obj-y definitions to Makefile.objs, prefixed {common-,hw-,user-},
and link those object files directly into the executables.

Replace HWLIB by HWDIR, specifying only the directory.

Drop --whole-archive and ARLIBS in Makefiles and configure.

Drop GENERATED_HEADERS dependency in rules.mak, since this rebuilds all
common objects after generating a target-specific header; add dependency
rules to Makefile and Makefile.target instead.

v2:
- Don't try to include /config.mak for user emulators
- Changes to user object paths ("Quickfix for libuser.a drop") were obsoleted
  by "user_only: compile everything with -fpie" (Kirill A. Shutemov)

Breaks build:
  CC    i386-softmmu/i386-dis.o
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `/loader.o', needed by `qemu'.  Stop.

Hi,

I have succesfully used the v2 patch on my OpenSolaris/SPARC host and it 
seems to fix the Solaris linking issue.

I found out that completely removing the object directory and
recreating it from scratch helps. This sucks bisectability-wise, is
there any way to avoid it?

There is still one problem, tools need config-host.h but the
dependencies are not correct:
  CC    qemu-nbd.o
In file included from /src/qemu/qemu-nbd.c:19:
/src/qemu/qemu-common.h:32:25: error: config-host.h: No such file or directory

Sounds as if configure was not re-run and thus $(HWDIR) not set in  
config-target.mak. No idea why, more likely a general issue.
Do you have a way to reproduce? What about `make clean` or `make  
distclean`?

Fix coming up. Basically, $(GENERATED_HEADERS) were previously used on  
_all_ object files via rules.mak. That does not work when referencing  
objects from another Makefile, so the modelling needs to be done  
explicitly.

Strange, now that I try to reproduce it with a new directory,
everything works. Also my normal compile directory does not show the
problem anymore. Maybe there were some old files lying around.

OK. Since there have been no objections, I'd like to apply this soon.

That would be very much appreciated.

I have not tested bsd-user. Could you please check that on your BSD  
setup?

Thanks,

Seems to work, as do Milax and mingw32.
