I still don't understand the problem with using wrappers. They are an elegant way of executing the compiler and linker with the switches that we want. I don't agree with the "They are evil" statement. Yes, if it is overused, it can cause problems. -- Tushar Teredesai mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/~tushar/ -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
