	Sure - well; in the past OO.o has had link maps & the like to handle
this stuff per-symbol. However - they are hard to maintain, work badly
across platform & compiler toolchains, and ... well ;-) I'm hoping that
just not binding weak symbols internally is an easy to use &
non-controversial feature that would be useful for other large C++
projects no doubt.

	Thanks though,

		Michael.
