Hmmm...

Does the program run properly when you munge your linker command file to 
leave this data out?

I think there was a .init section added in 3.x, along with a .ctor and 
.dtor that are needed even for non-C++ programs.

Bits of the dump you posted look like function addresses, which would be 
consistent with .ctor/.dtor tables.

I wouldn't know any of this if I hadn't had the exact same problem when 
I converted over to 3.x, but that was a long time ago and my program 
refused to run without the fixes...


b.g.
