To be honest, I've been very tempted to solve this problem using a very
brutal approach: take solib-svr4.c, copy it to solib-aout.c, strip
out/in SVR4-SHARED_LIBS code, and then tweek the config files to use either.
I think this is one of those cases where the desire to re-use the code
was taken a little to far - better to get the interfaces right and have
a clear separation. Who cares about a little duplication :-)
enjoy,
Andrew
