gollark: I think that's... libc, maths, threads, and random dynamic linking stuff.
gollark: ``` linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007ffcaa5d2000) libdl.so.2 => /usr/lib/libdl.so.2 (0x00007f86c5969000) libpthread.so.0 => /usr/lib/libpthread.so.0 (0x00007f86c5947000) libgcc_s.so.1 => /usr/lib/libgcc_s.so.1 (0x00007f86c592d000) libc.so.6 => /usr/lib/libc.so.6 (0x00007f86c5766000) /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 => /usr/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007f86c66ec000) libm.so.6 => /usr/lib/libm.so.6 (0x00007f86c5621000)```More than I expected, but not many.
gollark: I'll check how much my random rust code links to.
gollark: Technically I think it mostly just compiles giant runtime stuff into its binary, but same sort of thing.
gollark: I think R Ü S T and Go mostly manage it.
