I've suggested this before.... We use ELF heavily on several platforms. Under
Solaris we recently added dynamic linking support for ELF as well, and we use
ELF for mips, pa, i386, sparc. It's becoming popular with high-end ICE's
as well. A.out has too many limitations on sections, that's why DJGPP
moved to COFF, but ELF would be even better.
