    The "GNU Linker" Approach
    -------------------------
    A very different means of getting g++ up on COFF systems has been implemented
    primarily by Dirk Grunwald (grunwald@cs.colorado.edu).  I appologize if there
    were other people (in particular, MDT) who also worked on this, and who I
    have failed to give proper credit to.  In any case, the "GNU Linker"
    approach is prefered by Michael Tiemann and by the FSF because it uses
    fewer non-free software tools.  This approach relies on a program called

Another reason I prefer this approach is because linking need only be
performed once.  Using other approaches require the link to be
performed at least twice: once to figure out what is needed, and once
to then link in code which performs the initialization.  But I suppose
if you are afflicted with COFF (or its related diseases), the time
spent linking is among the least of your overall computer problems.
