            The Solaris linker's equivalent is (sorry I didn't realize
            this earlier): <br>
            <pre>-Wl,-z -Wl,discard-unused=sections

</pre>
            We can use -ffunction-section/-fdata-sections with Solaris'
            GCC. We also need to pass -falign-functions=8.<br>
            <br>
            I will rework the patch with these changes, test it, and
            then resend. <br>

                Will the sun linker gc the sections itself then? or do
                we need to avoid using
                -ffunction-section/-fdata-sections as well?

                  solves the problem of<br>
                  trying to build on Solaris.  The issue is that
                  Solaris' gcc uses the<br>
                  Solaris linker and that linker doesn't have the
                  --gc-sections flag.<br>
