While was trying the linux (ELF) demo of mathematica, it was giving me
the following message on startup:

    # ./mathematica
    ELF binary type not known
    Abort trap

I have the linux_mod.o installed:

	prova# modstat
	Type     Id Off Loadaddr Size Info     Rev Module Name
	MISC      0   0 f72c3000 0008 f72c4000   1 star_saver_mod
	EXEC      1   4 f72ea000 001c f72f0010   1 linux_mod

and I can successfully run rvplayer 5.0 (linux version) which is
an ELF binary as well. Running "file" on both programs gives the
same answer:

	prova# file rvplayer
	rvplayer: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1

So I am wondering where the error message comes from. Either there are
different versions/types of ELF files, or there is some of the exec*
calls which is not aware of the presence of the linux emulator ?

This is on a 2.2.1 system.

	Thanks
	Luigi
