Hi,

This is the patch for the common symbol bug in ELF I reported
earlier. I hope it won't break anything.

Thanks.

I don't understand this.  I thought I explained why it was not a bug.
Solaris notwithstanding, ELF doesn't work that way.  I may have
misunderstood your response.  Did you disagree with my explanation?
