My .saberinit file declares some routines like malloc (for 3.0 I don't
even have it "setopt ansi" -- oops), and includes a couple of standard
header files, but doesn't use the identifier "s" anywhere.
Running nm over libc.a, I do find:
/lib/libc.a:res_send.o: 000006ac T _res_close
/lib/libc.a:res_send.o: V errno
/lib/libc.a:res_send.o: 00000720 b no_addr
/lib/libc.a:res_send.o: 00000000 T res_send
/lib/libc.a:res_send.o: 00000714 g s
/lib/libc.a:res_send.o: 00000710 g sccsid
But from nm(1):
g local small initialized data
This shouldn't be visible to me...
