c++.beta - linker + Hyperthreading / Multiple core/cpu issues

Walter,

Is it possible to make the linker (exe and dll) only use 1 core?
I ask this because on HT and dual core machines it locks-up quite 
frequently.


These are links to a program and source which makes it possible (but 
does not handle cmdline args)

MS also provides a tool in the kit:
Imagecfg.exe tool from the Windows 2000 Server Resource Kit Supplement One.

But it would be much better when the link.exe/dll itself takes care of this
