I have no objection to the name static_strings.c, I'm just trying to visualize
the build process. I don't think I quite understand what you're doing here.
(These strings wind up in libbb.a, right? I take it the individual .o files
are some kind of hack so they can be individually linked in without sucking
in the others...?)
This static_strings file is probably going to want to eat libbb/mtab_file.c,
by the way.
