Perhaps you can just ship a bunch of object files and do the final linking only as a part of your installation process. Of course, since the C++ ABI changed with GCC 3.x, you might want to bundle the C++ libraries, but leave out everything else. It would also mean that end-users have to have binutils, and perhaps make, installed on their machines as a pre-requisite. Ranjit. -- Ranjit Mathew Email: rmathew AT gmail DOT com Bangalore, INDIA.
