It's an ECOFF specific optimization that just has been forward ported into
the ELF world.  And what does this have to do with SGI anyway?

I was wondering who you speak for when you say "we don't
support foobar", and your email is @oss.sgi.com.

You seem to be unaware that half of oss users are ex-sgi employees :-)

I was just trying to decode the meaning of what you said.
Like, did you mean "I don't care about it" or "The tools are
totally broken and you have to go along way to use it"?

The global data optimization would fit dietlibc's goal
of as-small-as-possible, statically linked binaries. But
from what you said I gather I would have to fix gcc and
binutils first.

See also my other email about the status of -G.
