From Axel Schreiner's UNIX Clinic:
||               One can even initialize global variables in  this  con-
||          text _w_i_t_h_o_u_t resorting to the -_m flag instructing the loader
||          _l_d to accept multiple definitions:

Question: is there any cost associated with using the -m flag?
I use -m as a matter of course.

Aside from the occasional P-E dependency such as this
reference, I think the UNIX Clinic is excellent general
fodder for UNIX programmers, and warrants posting to
net.lang.c.
