I had trouble parsing your message. Are you saying that (a) before changing the library you have a program that compiles ok (b) after changing the library, the program becomes gigantic and won't link ? Nothing to do with *running* the program? If I have understood right, what are the sizes of the .o files in (a) and (b)? Has one (or lots) gotten gigantic?
