[avr-gcc-list] Linker question

[Trampas]

I have noticed that the avr-gcc linker/compiler will link in functions that
are never called. I can understand the compiler/linker doing this when you
are using pointer to functions as that it can not be determined at compile
time what functions will be called. However if you are not using pointers to
functions is there a way to have the linker not include functions that are
not called?

Thanks
