what do you mean a one level namespace?
I thought the idea of external names is that you could resolve name
conflicts. Like if you had “exit” declared in 2 libraries can they both be
linked together in one program using the external name? I’m curious about
this though because I’ve never seen a way to do that with a linker, all you
can ever do is specify libraries then the linker does all the work and if
there are duplicates you get an error, end of story.
