We already have a way to deal with that using sonames. It's not that hard, and is routinely used. BTW, is this a problem even if no -O options are given when building a library? > sensibly share libraries between apps. Anyway, disc is cheap. Memory not so much, though. One advantage of having something in .so form is that every instance of every application that uses it shares the same in-memory image of the code. -- John _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
