And as an idea, if position independent code is used, only pointers in initialized data need adjustment. Cannot the linker emit a table of addresses that need fixing?

IIU Bill C, yes the linker can emit the information and the startup code could use this information instead of relying on hand-provided info; the linker file probably needs to be modified in order to provide such info. I intend to look into this, but feel free to do too.

I thought therefore is the GOT. But if there is another way, to get rid of this hand fixing, it would be a good thing.
