By "compatible", I mean ((hdr->sh_flags & SHF_WRITE) && (phdr->p_flags & PF_W)) or ((hdr->sh_flags & SHF_WRITE) == 0 && (phdr->p_flags & PF_W) == 0) As a matter of fact, the code is already there in elfcode.h in my source tree. But it is commented out with /* FIXME: ctors/dtors contain the code, but are r/w. */ We have moved ctors/dtors into the data section. That won't be the problem any more. But this may break those embedded systems. H.J.
