Yes you can, but why work around something that can be fixed? Also it
is a little more difficult to fix in the release target, not impossible,
but why should we have to do it, if we can just get rid of the problem?
Do a "cat src/sbin.a* | tar -tzvf - | fgrep .o" in 3.0-RELEASE directory
or any of the 3.0 snaps after the first E-day and you will see a lot of
.o files.
