Re: flat namespaces redux

The "-flat_namespace -undefined suppress" can be a severe pain. I usually
avoid these flags by adding -no-undefined to LDFLAGS, but this can cause
havoc with some packages. Trying to compile GTK-2.0 when -no-undefined has
been added everywhere is fun fun fun

Perhaps we just have to accept that Darwin is different?

Still, -Xlinker has proven to very useful. You can do fun stuff like

libThing_la_LDFLAGS = -no-undefined \
        -Xlinker -prebind -Xlinker -seg1addr -Xlinker 3f00f000

Viva la dyld,
Frank

ps. While the world's need for two-level namespaces may be questionable,
    MacOSX nevertheless makes considerable use of the feature...
