Sometime in April David Ostroske assaulted the keyboard and produced:

| Lucky you, I was just looking this up. Plugins compiled with gcc 2.9x
| apparently won't work with versions of Mozilla and Firefox
| (Firebird/Phoenix/whatever) compiled with later versions of gcc.
| 
| I haven't tried these yet, but here's an unsupported workaround
| http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=213234#c3
| 
| and official RV9 components. (Read the last comment on the first link's
| page.)

i'm a little confused here. 
  Find an libgcc.a from a gcc-2.95.x compiler, and then

   % ld -shared -o rpnphack.so \
      /full/path/to/RealPlayer/rpnp.so \
      /some/path/to/an/old/libgcc.a

  and then use rpnphack.so in your plugin directory.


i can execute the above command, but where does this rpnphack.so thing come
from and how do i tell firebird to use it?

 the holy name of liberty and democracy?
