I can look into it, but it isn't a simple change.  I believe our binutils distribution somewhat dated for compatibility reasons, which might be problematic.

Is it possible to release a version of the compiler that supports run time link optimization?
Thanks,
Pete

If I try to compile with the -flto option to enable link time optimizations, I get this error;

Any clues?? Everything in the path appears to be where it needs to be.
This line looked suspect but I don't see how to modify it..
