-gc3 only work for PRG's. So it is a Harbour flag when used. It is _NOT_
a must that all LIBs be compiled with -gc3. We can do a mix here. Eg.
xHarbour core libs are compiled with -gc0 and PRGs which construct the
EXE and/or external LIBs with -gc3.

Anyway, experiments are the best base for drawing conclusion.
