While reading the GNU ld manpage: | A number of modifiers (mod) may immediately follow the p keyletter, to | specify variations on an operation's behavior: | [...] | S Do not generate an archive symbol table. This can speed up build- | ing a large library in several steps. The resulting archive can | not be used with the linker. In order to build a symbol table, you | must omit the S modifier on the last execution of ar, or you must | run ranlib on the archive. Is there any reason we don't use this? Should I hack up a patch for it? Regards, Ralf
