Re: [MiNT] binutils bug (or feature?)

When using the linker, there's an option I'd like to use called

ignored completely on our MiNT version.

Basically, it allows the final link stage to occur even with unresolved
symbols and the linker just warns.

Have you got time or shall I dig in ?


I didn't know that option.
It is probably totally ignored by the standard a.out linker, which is used by our MiNT target. 

I'm not really in the mood of digging into the binutils :S

For curiosity, in which cases can this option be useful ?
