And also, in addition to Marco's comment, are you aware that you must copy the files
to the correct folder after compiling them, i.e. not just compiling them and leaving
them in the actual Source directories. And if you have dual compilers installed on
your system of course, make sure you copy to the right folder and not the wrong one.
And also, smartlinked units contain .A files in addition to .O and .PPU files
