You were heading towards: ld: undefined __mcsafe_copy since that is also inside the #ifdef. Weren't you going to "select" this? I'm seriously wondering whether the ifdef still makes sense. Now I don't have an extra exception table and routines to sort/search/fixup, it doesn't seem as useful as it was a few iterations ago.
