i added a function to 9load's lib.h today declared incorrectly. 9load uses lib.h so one doesn't haul in the entire c library by accident. there were no link errors. it didn't crash, but did some difficult to explain things. now fixed.
i believe other times i've declared an extern function incorrectly and the linker has given me diagnostics. but when i looked at /386/lib/libc.a, there are no type signatures and it turns out the default is that they are not generated. so, am i wrong that i have seen diagnostics for incompatable type signatures? and, why aren't the signatures put into object files by default? - erik
