The symptom I've seen is that all the text symbols start at around -0x400000, while the relocations are at offset 0x400000+ into the text section, after an ld -r. I'm going to start debugging the problem in a few days (when I get done with my more severe problems). -- Shankar Unni shankar@chromatic.com Chromatic Research (408) 752-9488 - For help on using this list, send a message to "gnu-win32-request@cygnus.com" with one line of text: "help".
