The linkage.c module is where I put critically necessary initialization steps for c-client. Not all of those steps are obvious. If you link manually instead of using linkage.c, some things now (and in the future) will fail in unpredictable ways.

I have already had incidents where I wasted a lot of time debugging someone's problem, only to discover that a critical linkage wasn't done because he lunk manually in his application instead of using linkage.c.

If you want to remove some drivers, do so in the DRIVERS setting in the Makefile. DO NOT LINK MANUALLY!!

Please do not link things manually. Please use linkage.c instead.
