My apologies, I just checked and it is as an RDEPENDS. The reason that I 
put libgcc in the DEPENDS is that when I was developing libsoc I ran 
into a function (pthread_cancel) which required libgcc.so.1 to be on the 
rootfs, which it wasn't. Having just checked a new build now, with only 
core-image-minimal there doesn't appear to be any libgcc.so.1 in the 
rootfs again, so should I have libgcc in RDEPENDS? I thought OE put all 
the libraries it linked against in the rootfs automatically... or have I 
misunderstood?

Cheers,
