Description:
As discussed in ML. Jonas explained:
The general explanation is:
-CX: create object files that can be smartlinked
-XX: perform smartlinking during the linking phase (this requires that
the units were compiled with -CX)
On some targets, -CX is a no-op and -XX works even when -CX was not
specified (e.g. Linux), or both -CX and -XX are no-ops and smart linking
is always enabled (Windows).
