Yeah.Other RAP file which references the same code that already in the
first rap should not pull the same code into the final image.

Sorry. I can not got this. what code should be added to rtl-host?

To bld whose feature is 'c program', libs = ['m', 'xxx'] works. But to 'c
rap' which is defined in RTL, adding libs to bld of waf does not work. So I
wrote a patch to fix this, the patch first clear the RTEMS_LINKFLAGS env,
then refill it. The patch is in the attachments.

Peng.
