Re: [MiNT] obsolete aout binutils?
Hello!
Are you sure this is possible? The biggest problem of the MiNT port of the 
binutils was to remember all relocations and write the relocation 
information table that is needed by the Atari format (it's even not unix 
a.out). Normally (for ELF and a.out) you lose all relocation informations 
during linking as ELF and a.out always relocate to a fixed address. I don't 
know how ulinux handle this.
IIRC Amiga OS uses ELF with PPC binaries without VM - so it seems it is 
possible.
Please explain how they realized that.
Regards,
Frank
