[PATCH 0/7] libevdev GCC/LD magic

[David Herrmann]

Hi Peter

This series includes a bunch of trivial build-fixes and some more advanced
gcc/ld magic for libevdev. I think some of them can be picked up right away. The
gcc/ld specific bits I am not really sure. They obviously only work on linux
with GCC and GNU-LD.

Feel free to drop any of these patches if you want to support LLVM/etc. However,
I think regarding the linker, GNU-LD is still de-facto standard on linux. Stuff
like LLVM-ld (never got it working and I know no-one using it) or GNU-gold (some
quite incompatible ld-variant which lacks support for a lot of options) are not
really common. So maybe the linker options make sense, while the GCC specific
bits should be kept in "if $GCC=yes".

Comments welcome!

Regards
David
