GCC 4.0 ~ ld problem? about xcodelegacy HOT 6 CLOSED

The original ld should be moved to /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/bin/ld-original and replaced by a shell script (see lines 180 and following in the script).
The script probably asked for an administrator password at some point, and you entered a wrong one or just typed return.
I'll add a message in the script explaining this.

Hi,
first of all, thanks a lot for this script!

I'm trying to use GCC 4.0 to target Mac OS 10.4 and have the following error:

ld: error: can't exec '/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/libexec/ld' (errno=Permission denied)
collect2: ld returned 71 exit status
When running your script, there was a related error:

./XcodeLegacy.sh: line 180: /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/bin/ld: Permission denied
chmod: /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/bin/ld: No such file or directory
installed Xcode3ld.tar.gz
In the end, the directory /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/bin/ld does exist, but only contains a ppc and a ppc64 directory. I guess there should also be a i386 directory there?

Nothing of the sort, it just runs and outputs these errors. The admin password is asked later on.

strange - look at all the sudos in the script.
alternatively, could you try to run the install phase with sudo:
sudo ./XCodeLegacy.sh install

I'm looking into it... I could use the heredoc + cat in a new file so that syntax should definitely work... but your own script fails to create the ld replacement script, so the chmod fails because the file doesn't exist anymore.

so the error probably doesn't come from the use of sudo...

yes, I know where it comes from, it's the script creation phase. "sudo cat > foo" just doesn't work if the shell is not running with administrative rights

I just modified the script (2eda5e3 ) so that it checks that it's running under sudo for the install and uninstall phases

Oh okay, I hadn't understood that, thought the script would always work given all the sudos!

Now it's alright, thanks! :)
