I think you misunderstood my question.
collect2 runs through the list of files to link and collects the
constructors and destructors. It then makes a c file of those items,
compiles it, then calls ld again with the original list of objects
plus the new object. I'd like to stop before the second call to ld
is made. (I'm looking at the source now and I don't see that option).
Thanks,
Perry

I want to call the linker myself. I think that is going to be easier
to do in my situation.
g++ does not generate C code. It translates directly from C++ to
assembler code.
You can get the assembler code with -S, or the assembler output with
-c. Using -c will give you a .o file which you can use to call the
linker yourself.
