Sorry -- offhand I don't have any sense of any "standard" names, and I won't have time till late next week to look at it at all. The most important thing is to *DOCUMENT CAREFULLY* exactly what the names are and what they mean. Whatever names you add, please list them in config/init/data.pl along with a nice good long verbose description of exactly what they are. See the existing entries for cc, link, and ld for some good examples. See ld_shared and ld_shared_flags for some bad examples. -- Andy Dougherty [EMAIL PROTECTED]
