Description Phil Muldoon 2007-07-27 14:26:20 UTC
As it is right now, these programs rely on the the corefile code finding the
executable in the elf_prpsinfo notes. However things like:


./foo/bar/exename

Will defeat it as "./" means nothing to the code. This code is exceptionally
fragile and should not be used until --pivotexeroot and --pivotsolibroot are
implemented.

There are two constructors in dead/LinuxHost, one of which where one specifies
both the corefile and the executable.
