I guess I will do next time when I compile tcc (or when this
causes a failure for my compilations) if nobody else
makes a proper fix until then.

For the moment I'm happy that dynamic linking works for my purposes and more
concerned about not being able to properly link statically...

Right. I thought of approaching this but it did not make any difference in my
case and I do not fully understand the parser logic, nor the implications
of partial implementation.

Nice.

Thanks again,
