Hmm, well, The readelf -l and -S output from a 2.14.90.0.7-based cross-compiler is attached, along with -l & -S outout from the 2.15.90.0.1.1 (--version reports 2.15.90.0.1) as well for comparison. The PAX_FLAGS bit comes from a patch added in gentoo for PaX support in binaries. More info on PaX is at http://pax.grsecurity.net. I'm going to rebuild my kernel cross-compiler without that one patch and see what the results are. --Kumba ----------------------------------------------- # mips-unknown-linux-gnu-readelf --version GNU readelf 2.14.90.0.7 20031029 Copyright 2003 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
