- BUGS
-
- there is no passing of error codes back to the calling application
- when you use vfork()/execve()/wait4()
- this means that if you get a source syntax error, gcc will try
- to carry on anyway
-
- there is no way to save stdout/stderr/cout/cerr if you have more than a screenful
- (except by programming in some freopen() commands)
-
- if multiple programs run, only the last one will save its output
-
- undefined symbols in most cases will not be found till execution
-
- ld is a memory hog
-
- you cannot set up application partition sizes and signature, these are always
- copied from the defaults in the ld application.
-
- there is no co-processor maths support.
-
- a good number of system calls are unimplmented due to laziness
- (see the file stubs.c in usr:src:mac)
-
- if the calling application is at the front, it may get stuck, until you click
- on the desktop to manually cause a context switch.
-
- since all the tools have the signature 'TEST', the finder will get confused
- about which one to use if you double click a 'TEST' document unless the
- application is already launched.
-
- It might be an idea to restart your machine after using this program in case there
- are memory leaks which could interfere with other applications.
