Subject:	QUESTION: libgcc.a

I just rebuilt libgcc.a by creating a files similar to the files
distributed in:
	djlsr112.zip: /libsrc/gcc/src

However, since I am building a new compiler from new sources I updated
libgcc1.cc_ and libgcc2.cc_ and created _<libname>.c for all the
library members listed as LIB1FUNCS and LIB2FUNCS in the gcc makefile.

LIB2FUNCS includes __main and _exit but I notice that these two
functions are not included in the libgcc.a distributed in
gcc260bn.zip, why is that?

Now, there is no problem compiling __main.c and _exit.c, but if they
are included in the library the global_ctor and global_dtor are NOT
invoked?  Hence global objects are never constructed.   If I remove
__main.o and _exit.o from the library, then everything is fine.

Anybody got a clue?

Thanks,
--soeren
