Was it this error message? I cannot remember exactly but now will
pout it in the FAQ.

Versions of `ld' which don't have this option only handle the next to
come .a file in this mode. I.e., one had to add more --whole-archive
parameters if more .a files had to be handled.


For 2.0.3 I've added a sanity check for the CFLAGS in the environment
so that this is error reason is hopefully caught.


Thanks, Eric.
