You could avoid linking with ext.o.

But probably it's better to think about the situation:
  - Is libgss an application or a library? If it is a library, do the
    application authors want their application to crash with a core dump
    (after abort()) when memory is tight? (E.g. do you want your browser
    or text editor to crash because of a problem in a library?)
  - Is the desired memory allocation failure behaviour always the same
    for all possible users of libshishi? Or does it depend on the application
    that uses libshishi? In the latter case, what's the API through which
    the application installs the error handler?
  - Same question for libgss.
