--- Comment #21 from Dave Korn <davek at gcc dot gnu.org> 2010-11-20 20:52:38 UTC --- (In reply to comment #20) > If we have to pass libgcc archive in GCC driver, what happens to > random archives on command line?

Link-time optimisations can only generate new undefined references to functions that GCC knows how to optimise as builtins, so I think this can only happen with libgcc and libc references. In the case of user code and libraries, there should always be undefined references in the LTO symtabs to the required functions.
