Thomas--
strip -x yields a binary that is only a few bytes bigger than the one
made with the -Wl,-x option, and it doesn't crash for me. So it seems
like a good option. Although I am trying to understand what is
different about using strip -x and doing what should be the same
thing with the -Wl,-x option...

I figured it out...removing the -Wl,-x linker option (which is set in flext/buildsys/gnumake.inc) stops the crashing on load...process of elimination :) I'd love an explanation though...
Hi Jacob, the bad thing about removing the -Wl,-x option is that the externals are really big then. Probably it's only file size and not loaded code size though. I'm wondering what causes the crashes as only local symbols are stripped by -x (and because it doesn't crash for me!) and if there's a way to strip the files in a different way. Does it crash if you are applying "strip -x ext.pd_darwin" on the external afterwards?
thanks, Thomas
