You get zillions of warnings about RRS text relocations, but the output file does seem to be legitimate. I still have doubts that this buys you anything, though. Is there any advantage over just using the static symbol table and relocations? Remember, you'll have to link against kernel symbols too, and it won't have a run-time symbol table. -- John Polstra jdp@polstra.com John D. Polstra & Co., Inc.
