This modification adds build complexity and execution time for each build, just to fix a potential problem which is very rare. I personally prefer the current solution (remove bad object files manually). I did not test the patch, but won't cross builds be caught in an endless loop when the native size command does not know the cross object format? Regards, Stefan
