I was compiling the attached "foolib.c" and putting it into a shared
library, and then compiling the attached "foo.c", linking it with that
library, and running it.  I then modified the string in "foolib.c",
rebuilt the shared library, and did *not* rebuild the program from
"foo.c" but just re-ran the program; it should print the new value of
the string. 


static const char foostr[] = "Hi, honey, I'm home!";

const char *
foo(void)
{
        return foostr;
}

#include <stdio.h>

extern const char *foo(void);

#if 0
extern char foostr[];
#endif

int
main(int argc, char **argv)
{
        printf("%s\n", foo());
#if 0
        printf("%s\n", foostr);
#endif
        return 0;
}
