Hi Reinhart,
Short answer - the relocation process does not handle pointers inside
data structures.
And yes, this means the content arrays of pointers such as init_sequence
is not relocated. Been there, done that, can give you one of the
tee-shirts I got :)
ATM I have not found a way to fix this, except making the code which
uses the pointers aware that the are location-sensitive and fix them
when using them.
Amicalement,
