When linking dlls(umath.so, for instance), following command is executed.

gcc -L/usr/lib -L/Volumes/pkgsrc/pkg/lib -bundle -bundle_loader /Volumes/pkgsrc/pkg/bin/python2p3 -L/usr/lib -L/Volumes/pkgsrc/pkg/lib/python2p3/config -L/Volumes/pkgsrc/pkg/lib -O2 -I/usr/include -I/Volumes/pkgsrc/pkg/include/python2p3 -no-cpp-precomp -I/usr/include -I/Volumes/pkgsrc/pkg/include/python2p3 build/temp.darwin-7.6.0-Power_Macintosh-2p3/Src/umathmodule.o -lm -o build/lib.darwin-7.6.0-Power_Macintosh-2p3/umath.so -L/usr/lib -L/Volumes/pkgsrc/pkg/lib/python2p3/config -L/Volumes/pkgsrc/pkg/lib

And when -bundle_loader [path to executable] option is used, the executable file needs to have symbol table.


If you are interedted, please see http://developer.apple.com/releasenotes/DeveloperTools/TwoLevelNamespaces.html
and ld(1) to get information about the purpose of -bundle_loader.
