Writing a new linker seems like a great way not to have fun! On Sat, Nov 2, 2013 at 7:49 AM, Steve Davidson <jeep at scshome.net> wrote: Then how about NetBSD on x86??? I really would like to attack the *BSDs ... I investigate periodically but I just can't decide which I'd regret more: conditionalizing the hell out of 11K lines of Linux-specific support code, or editing a copy into ~11K lines of BSD-specific code that's easy reading but needs to be maintained in parallel. Um, or I could do both? Nah. It would be fun to get working though. John Wilson D Bit
