Is `-lstdc++` needed during linking?

Hi!
Is -lstdc++ LDFLAGS flag needed for this library to work?
I just tried compiling the example file without it, and it appears to work just fine.
I'm wondering because its presence makes cross-compiling from Linux to macOS quite a bit painful.
Thanks!
It is necessary on x64 Linux. I'll change bls/link.go not to link it on M1 mac.
Does this patch work on your architecture?
Hey! Re-opening this issue to communicate that on darwin arm64 the issue is now fixed.
Do you believe we can get rid of -lstdc++ on darwin amd64 as well?
Thank you!
It is unnecessary if it runs well without -lstdc++. I'll remove it in the next version.
I did not test this case, but by logic if it works without it on arm64 I don’t see why it shouldn’t on amd64 as well.
Different source code is used for arm64 and amd64. Even if it is okay on macOS, I don't know if it is the same elsewhere without trying. In fact, on Windows, -lstdc++ is required on amd64.
Yeah I can see that being an issue.
Do you have an ETA for the release of a version embedding a fix?
