ld docs bug

[Russell Shaw]

Hi,

-static makes all the -l<lib> files get selected as .a static libraries,
but -Bstatic is used to selectively link .a files while others can be
linked as shared ones.

"man ld" lists them together:

  -Bstatic
  -dn
  -non_shared
  -static
      Do not link against shared libraries. This is...

I don't know if -dn/-non_shared are global or selective.


Some of these options may be selective or global also (man ld):

  -Bdynamic
  -dy
  -call_shared
      Link  against  dynamic  libraries...


The man page should be edited to say which ones are global or selective.
I used gnu ld: GNU ld version 2.14.90.0.4 20030523 Debian GNU/Linux
