About linker otions an rebasing

[Angelo Graziosi]

I remember an old discussion on cygwin-apps that suggested to add

    -Wl,--enable-auto-import -Wl,--enable-auto-image-base

as linker options to avoid some problems with rebasing (adding the above 
should avoid to rebase, if I remember correctly).

But suppose that for an application foo.exe we have:

$ cygcheck foo.exe
C:\cygwin\usr/local/emacs/bin/b2m.exe
   C:\cygwin\bin\cygwin1.dll
     C:\WINDOWS\system32\ADVAPI32.DLL
       C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntdll.dll
       C:\WINDOWS\system32\KERNEL32.dll
       C:\WINDOWS\system32\RPCRT4.dll
         C:\WINDOWS\system32\Secur32.dll

i.e. 'cygwin1.dll' is the unique Cygwin DLL interested: Should we 
continue to add the above options?

Or it has not sense any more?


Thanks,
    Angelo.
