Hi, Ralf

thanks very much for this speedy response.

I have too limited Solaris experience to answer that, but from what I see now 
it's probably not a good idea.

I can see now, that just doing this

CC -G -nolib -hlibXrdSec.so.0 
-o .libs/libXrdSec.so.0.0.0 .libs/XrdSecClient.o .libs/XrdSecPManager.o
 .libs/XrdSecProtocolhost.o .libs/XrdSecServer.o ../XrdOuc/.libs/libXrdOuc.a 
../XrdNet/.libs/libXrdNet.a 
...

without any kind of -QOptions also does the job (and this was actually used in 
the build system of the project which I am currently moving to autotools). I 
have dicovered some old mails on you list about the introduction of the 
QOptions with allextract, but it was in another context.

Great. Thanks.

Sure. I'll try to do it tomorrow morning or tonight. The bootstrapped Libtool 
tarball would be easiest for me. What should I do to test it?

Cheers,
