No, it isn't. :-)
It's the default in C++, or when you say `-shared' to build a shared
library. It is *not* the default in C when you just link a program.
We could change that -- but the current status is that you will not
get shared libgcc if you say something like:
gcc -o test a.o b.o
That will work just as it always has.
