Description From 2016-12-24 07:17:30
This happens in the head master and not in 4.0.7

I got the error build from portage which catches these type of bugs.


 * QA Notice: The following files contain runtime text relocations
 *  Text relocations force the dynamic linker to perform extra
 *  work at startup, waste system resources, and may pose a security
 *  risk.  On some architectures, the code may not even function
 *  properly, if at all.
 *  For more information, see:

after more tests, I discovered that it is present in 4.0.7 too but it comes out
only if compiled with a recent version of clang (3.9.0 here).

Bugzilla is no longer used for tracking libtiff issues. Remaining open tickets,
such as this one, have been migrated to the libtiff GitLab instance at
https://gitlab.com/libtiff/libtiff/issues .

The migrated tickets have their summary prefixed with [BZ#XXXX] where XXXX is
the initial Bugzilla issue number.
