It is often a good rule in programming to look at the first error only and ignore the rest. In this case the first error shows the problem, and *after* that the error path after the correct diagnostics results in an internal error. Rare error paths are often buggy since they are not usually exercised. The internal error is surely a (minor) bug in the linker, but it doesn't invalidate anything that happened earlier. cu Adrian -- "Is there not promise of rain?"
