Re: LDFLAGS = -Wl,--export-dynamic (was: Re: GANORME 2.10.0.1 - Devilspie error)

About point #2...

In the past, the linker flag, "-Wl,--export-dynamic" was used
*everywhere*. The "gnomes" [those folks who define the contents of
GNOME???] decided to remove this linker flag *in general* in order to
make the runtime image of applications that use shared libraries smaller
and faster loading.

Questions:
* have they changed their mind(s)?
* will gmodule-no-export.pc be eliminated
	==> remove it's downstream effects
