Thanks, the warning was suppressed. (I also had to link crt* objects)

But my a.out (which runs fine) still has a definition for func3() - the
function which is not referenced by main().

Too bad that the ld man page doesn't specify the hosts on which garbage
collection (--gc-sections) does not work.

Will retry on a Linux machine where everything is GNU, and see if I have
better results there.
