Thanks a lot, Nick!

I will do that as soon as possible, probably recompiling wxWidgets with
-ffunction-sections and -fdata-sections, then linking a simple app with -Wl and
--gc-sections enabled.

If anyone has suggestions on other libs to test, I will be glad to test with
them too.

Eduardo

Please, no news on this subject yet? I'm sure this is a very important feature
for us Windows GCC users (MingW / TDM), and I would help if I had the
knowledge. 

We have tons of people on the internet talking about how GCC ports to Windows
generate bloated code in comparison to MSVC, and this single implementation
would help a lot, mainly on projects linked against big libs, like wxWidgets,
QT and others.
