The other day I ran strip with the '--strip-debug' option on a library. The library I ran it had several files named 'init.o' within. I found that after stripping, there was only one file called 'init.o'. Is strip supposed to work this way? It seems counter-intuitive to me that strip would rewrite the archive's table o'contents (TOC). Bye, -- Richard Dawe [ mailto:richdawe AT bigfoot DOT com | http://www.bigfoot.com/~richdawe/ ]
