I suggest you read

http://www.suse.de/~bastian/Export/linking.txt
and
http://www.usenix.org/publications/library/proceedings/cinci93/full_papers/=
nelson.txt

And then I hope you will agree with me that the addition of prelinking to t=
he=20
gcc toolchain makes it a "binary format interpreter cut to suit the needs o=
f=20
KDE and a bunch of other modern apps". No need to start from scratch.

Cheers,
Waldo
