I'm trying to split a project (which was becoming way too big) but I'm
having troubles with global variables when compiling:
- I have two C files and one header file
- One of the C files contains the variables declared normally
- The header contains the same declarations with 'extern' in front of
each
- I #include the header in both C files

I get some 'undefined reference' errors and after that I get a bunch of 
'bfd assertion fail coff-i386.c:368' from ld
I found some doc on the Net but according to it, I'm doing everything
right! So what's the problem ?

the puzzled one
