  Thanks, just checking that there wasn't a bug causing it to be omitted.

  We've fixed this in upstream CVS versions of 'ld' by enabling auto import by
default for now.  If you're happy with building your own tools, you could
check out the binutils repository and build yourself a version that doesn't
emit all the warnings, or there will be a new binutils release coming along
fairly soon.

    cheers,
      DaveK
