Hi,

I'll investigate on an x86 based mac at work on Thursday.  I'm
particularly interested in trying to compile:

MODULE hello ;

FROM libc IMPORT printf ;

BEGIN
   printf("hello world\n")
END hello.

with:

gm2 -g -c -flibs=min hello.mod
gm2 -g -flibs=min hello.mod

as this will not use DynamicStrings.o

regards,
Gaius
