I'm finding that build works with:

make CONFIGUREARGS='--with-cflags=-O'... also -O2, but -O3 fails, so I'm going to start adding options between O2 and O3 to see which one causes it to fail..

And through this all, it is looking like PIE may be the problem.  I found several good links, here is one of them:

gcc's enable "–enable-default-pie" option make you stuck at "relocation R_X86_64_32S against …" error | Nan Xiao's Blog

I'm currently doing a test.  I changed src/configure, and for the linux section added -fno-pie -no-pie in with LDSHARED="$REALCC -shared".

Seeing what happens, if this works it might be an option that is necessary.

In debugging this, I'm finding some changes, I may create a PR for it.

On Fedora 28, mysql doesn't have MYSQL_SERVER_VERSION unless mysql_version.h is included.  This is on line 1954 of src/modules/Mysql/mysql.c. mariadb_version.h is included, which contains MARIADB_CLIENT_VERSION_STR and MARIADB_BASE_VERSION.  Two possibilities is to check if it is mariadb instead, and include mariadb_version.h and use MARIADB_CLIENT_VERSION_STR, or check if mariadb and if so include mysql/server/mysql_version.h.

I also found that -nostartfiles causes that relocation error.  Removing it fixes that problem, so I'm doing some further testing...  I think it is a gcc 8 issue.

It looks like it is a Fedora 28 issue.  I had a fedora 25 workstation vm that I built pike 8.0.498, and it worked fine.  Then I upgrade to fedora 26 and built, then fedora 27 and built.  Everything worked until fedora 28.   So not a pike issue, but something with fedora 28, perhaps gcc or glibc or something.

I'm going to try to debug further.

Thanks...

Before all else, I would try again from a clean checkout, i.e.

make distclean
git clean -xf
