Shrug. The info is there at the click of a button. If you were interested, you'd click, if not you wouldn't. > (And I followed the thread on boost, and am absolutely not sure.) Fine. Personally, I have no idea what the implications are. Does it result in a larger binary? How are these non-merged strings used? Basically I have no clue. I could write a little script find build/src -name '*.o' | while read file; do objcopy --set-section-flags .debug_str=contents,debug $file done and report back on subsequent link times/code size. Would you be interested or should I just drop it? -- Angus
