Hi,

Right.

BTW:

powerpc64 is failing due to my changes. I looks like a GCC issue, that 
it does not allow "static" and "extern" entries to reside in the same 
section. A simple way to solve this is by using a double pointer, so 
that the type of the exported section data is always "static" declared. 
Then GCC won't complain any more.

Any comments about how to resolve this?
