Atsushi Nemoto pointed me to http://lkml.org/lkml/2005/9/20/68.  This
old patch which seems more complete than mine but made it into the kernel.
 I just refreshed the patch and added the bits to ensure namespace.pl
uses the right nm binary also - Keith's original patch only fixed the
objdump use.

From: Keith Owens <kaos@ocs.com.au>

Those scripts are meant to work even when they are invoked by hand,
without OBJDUMP being defined in the environment.  This is the correct
fix.
