Thanks for the clarification, I expected it to print a version string
(because I was only interested in seeing that it does not die after the
pmap fix) but had to find out from the man page, that nm(1) uses -V for
that, while all other members of the binutils family opt for -v. Oh
well... Consistency in software design rocks.

So, problem solved.

Thanks to all who responded.
