Is > there a technical reason for that? i'm assuming you don't actually mean "libgcc.so" but instead "libgcc_s.so". in which case you're assuming that libgcc_s.so has exactly the same set of exported functions as libgcc.a when that is not the case. some symbols are only provided by libgcc.a. these often come down to trade-offs in how the ABI is implemented. you'll see the same thing if you try to (incorrectly) delete glibc's libc_nonshared.a file. or the crt .o files that gcc & glibc provide. -mike
