					<description>I may resort to that if I have to, but so far I've only spent a couple of days on this part of the effort.  Some support for linker scripts would have been required in any case.</description>

					<description>I think you're selling short the Linux maintainers' willingness to make improvements.  They may be enthusiastic enough about abandoning GNU ld to provide some forward compatibility.  After all, your linker only needs to work with current kernels, not historical ones.  My guess is that the limit to such changes is reached only at the point where they can't link with GNU ld any more.</description>
