Jeepers, they're not that dumb. Tlink does indeed report undefined symbols.
It reports them to me every day. (I wish it would report fewer of them, but
I guess I need bigger libraries.) Tlink does have problems running out of
space at inconvenient times, which is when you need to use MS-link, but
considering how fast tlink is, it's not that bad a tradeoff.
