It depends on the binary format. For example elf binaries (which is the standard binary format on SVR4, Solaris and Linux) can be stripped whithout loosing dynamic loading capabilities. On the other hand SunOS 4 cannot export symbols to modules if binaries are stripped. But that's only for zsh-3.1. Zoltan
