Hi,
I've been trying to work out a clean way to label linux binaries that I
don't want the path prepending done to.  This prepending makes the linux
ADSM client unusable (for example).

I know someone has gone so far as removing the whole /compat/linux path
from the linux emulator (ABI interface), and while that doesn't look hard
I've been trying to think of a better way.

The only thing I can think of so far is to use brandelf to either brand it
with a different type (say linuxnp) that has the path removed, (Can I just
put that extra type in linux_sysvec.c?) or add some other header
information.

Does anyone have any better ideas or is interested in working on this?

Carl.
