It's the first time I've heard of it (so I won't really know how it's used :-). AFAICT, ABI information is written in e_ident[EI_OSABI] and annotated with flags in e_flags. That should be enough for our ELF loader. -- Marcel Moolenaar mail: marcel@cup.hp.com / marcel@FreeBSD.org tel: (408) 447-4222 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-arch" in the body of the message
