Hi, we have xinu, versions 6 and 7 running on pdp-11s using a microvaxII
as the development environment.  We have some students attempting some
pretty interesting projects involving memory management and distributed
processes.  We are using the cc11 from version 7.  

My question is this:  is there any documentation on the format of
objects/executables generated by cc11?  The students need to make sure the 
objects are relocatable and to know if there are any good ways to determine 
the size of functions.  If anyone can point us to documentation on the format 
of cc11 output, we would be appreciative.  

						Thanks,
						Mark Parris
