I suspect you have the following problem: you are adding a file, `new.o', which contains a function `foo'. There is a module `m' which which references functions `foo' and `bar'. There is a second file, `orig.o', which contains functions `foo' and `bar'. The link order is: gcc m new.o orig.o Thus, `foo' is taken from `new.o' (since `foo' is undefined after reading `m'). Then `orig.o' is added (since `bar' is undefined at that point in the link) but since we must add files (and not functions) we end up with `foo' being redefined! _______________________________________________ Help-hurd mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-hurd
