Why is the data returned by an 'info shar' different from /proc/*/maps?  
I like to use /proc/*/maps to calculate the breakpoint address in my 
shared library, which I can do by adding the offset within the file to 
the library base load address.

I'm using all the default packages from Fedora Core 3, but I don't think 
that matters, as I've seen the same behavior on several x86 Linux machines.

GDB is reporting the load address of the .text section, not the
read-execute segment.
