I think that should be done by somebody who has better opinion on what's best
place in the compiler side to initialize drirc stuff, and what's the best place
to pass the info from there to the linker, than me.

Even better would be refactoring all the separate places in Mesa where drirc is
initialized sp that it's done only in one place, but that would be a *lot* more
work (Martin had some initial patches for that from long ago, but he gave up on
it)...
