We've recently experienced a issues with our software in the field: Integer 
division by zero. When I check the memory map it seems to point to a 
function in clib3r.lib(abort.c) called terminate. This area is listed in the 
.map file as an unreferenced symbol (not used in our code). Unknown to me 
why this would occur but a few screenshots from different customers point to 
the same area.
Should I be checking the box in the Linker Switches to Eliminate dead code 
[op el]? Is it possible this unused function is causing an issue?
