    SUBSYS.o step and allow for better optimization by the linker.
    
    Instead of partial linking into SUBSYS.o, the list of object files is
    assembled in objfiles.txt files that are expanded when the final
    linking is done.
    
    Because we are not yet sure how long command lines different platforms
    can handle, the old way of linking is still available, by defining the
    make variable PARTIAL_LINKING (e.g., make all PARTIAL_LINKING=1).  If
    we determine that this is necessary for some platforms, then we will
    document this in a more prominent place.
