>Description:
	Sometimes when linking ld gives a strange error message:
	  ld: Spurious undefined symbols: # undefined symbols 1, reported 0
	This is a very uninformative message, and it doesn't tell you
	how to correct the problem.

>How-To-Repeat:
	I cannot produce a simple example that generates this message,
	but I have a 4Mbyte link that generates it.
>Fix:
	I have no idea.
