squid --parse of a config with one-of-everything should do it.
Yes, the convenience libraries do strip out static initializers, I don't
think its deliberate in ld, rather that the graph traversal is coded as:
missing_refs = [symbol.references for symbol in mentioned_dot_o_files]
while missing_refs:
new_symbols = missing_refs
included.add(new_symbols)
missing_refs = [new_symbols.references for symbol in new_symbols]
And all the static initializing code in the .a convenience library is
never directly referred to (by design), with the result that it is not
included. I don't think that a pure virtual approach will work any
better because the same not-directly-listed result will occur.
