Hi.

Is there a way to get gxx to *not* link in extra libraries, or get gcc
to explicitly compile c++ code?

I've been working on a multipart c/c++ program, compiling each part
seperately and then linking them later.  

The c++ parts require that "__cplusplus" is defined (due to headers
included).  So, I compile them with gxx, which defines the proper
things.

The problem is that gxx automatically tries to link with the c++
library, even when I'm compiling to a .o file with the "-c" option. 
This gives me three warnings for each file I compile (warns that the c++
libs won't be linked).  If I use gcc instead, the warnings go away but
linking doesn't work right because all the plain C functions are
unrecognized.  (they're declared inside of one of these:
  #ifdef __cplusplus
  extern "C" {}
  #endif
in the headers for the plain c pieces)

I just want to get rid of the "library not linked" warnings, somehow.
