Well, that's not what the system C compiler does.  It spits out something
like

	Slibcfp.a Slibc.a

There is a symbol, uhm, uhm, __fltused, I think, which is defined as an
external if the code uses floating point.  Slibcfp.a has the various
routines that use floating point with __fltused defined.  (Note that
*printf* isn't defined until Slibc.a, and it declares __doprnt as an
external there.)

Aren't linkers *fun*?
