I always thought that was much nicer for debugging. But gcc 3.X's multi-object-code implementation is mandated by the multi-vendor ABI, which will make it harder. I missed the beginning of this thread so someone's probably already brought up these points, my apologies if I'm rehashing obvious stuff. Michael C
