Yea.  I can try that.  But trying to understand this code, it confuses me.  It is looking for an entry point of Init_dot.dot but the code is simply:

void Init_dot(void) {}

So, I don't see how the linker is going to be happy.

I tracked down that this is a test for a feature to "ignore rest from first dot" but I don't have enough context to figure out what that means.

Thanks for the help
