Ivan Kokshaysky posted a cool patch to get GNU LD to support -taso which
on a 64 bit platform jams the application into the bottom 32 bits. This
can help portability a lot. I've heard part of the problem porting
netscape to Alpha Linux is that it is not 64 bit clean. This feature has
existed on Tru64/Digital Unix for a long time. Any possibility of
getting it checked in to CVS? Or the linux distribution?
