I must be wrong, but why -O2 will solve his unresolved symbol problem ?

I can read this in gcc manual :
-O2 Optimize even more.  GCC performs nearly all supported optimizations
    that do not involve a space-speed tradeoff.  The compiler does not
    perform loop unrolling or function inlining when you specify -O2.  As
    compared to -O, this option increases both compilation time and the
    performance of the generated code.
	
I would be happy to know the reason if this flag solve his problem.
