          Depends on the linker you use.



          When using binutils gnu-ld or gold, you can use Windows-style response file, which allows you to bypass command line length limits and pass as many arguments as you need:



          echo "foo.o bar.o baz.o ... -lc" > args
          gcc main.o -Wl,@args # there is no limit on how big args file is.
