It adds local symbols to the linker map at the appropriate places, with a prefix of "(local) " so that they can be quickly identified. (Note local symbols are displayed after global symbols for a given section, rather than being mixed in with the global symbols). It is not complete yet. I think that I am going to have to add a command line option to control its use, as I expect that there are people out there who rely on the current format not changing. Plus I will need to add a testcase or two to the testsuite. I did find that *some* local symbols are already included in the linker map, eg _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ and at the moment such symbols will appear twice. So I ought to try to find a way to stop that from happening as well. Cheers Nick -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
