Am I all wet in thinking that the fact one can write code that
puts the library base vectors into globals with names that don't
agree with the libraries' declared globals,  and then compile
and link this code with those libraries WITHOUT THE SLIGHTEST COMPLAINT
from the linker demonstrates a serious weakness in the language?

Dejectedly,
