  • Updates the ELF loader to deal more robustly with more complex multi-segment programs.
  • Updates the user-mode linking process to use a custom linking script, ensuring that all segments load properly above 0x80000000. Avoids problems and variations that result from the host build tools configuration.

Fixes #298
