Haven't looked at the real declarations but if the decl are "extern" and nobody refers to them, why should the resulting object file require them to be defined anywhere? If the decl are not and in (fortran-ish) "common" section, on the other hand, you shouldn't have to define them yourself like this either. This sounds like a compiler bug to me. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
