'-lots' links against libots, which provides a number of mathematical functions (IIRC). You can get it from Compaq, too. 'strip libcpml_ev5.so' is actually intended to be a separate command that removes the symbols from the shared library, to reduce the amount of space it needs in memory and on the harddisk. Hope this helps, llap, Christoph
