	Yes, I used to do this all the time at my old job.  I intended it
to be a drop in replacement, but the handling of the SHT_DYNSYM sections
in our version of SVr4 was a bit weird, and Solaris treated things more
logically.  That being said, a little work might be needed on some flavors of
SVr4 to support a unified symbol table which the Dell SVr4 seemed to want.
This could be a linker option, I think.
