And even if your OS supplies run-time dynamic linking (as more UNIX
versions, for example, seem to be doing), which would probably obviate
the need to do much work making "doload.c" (there might even be one
that'd be portable among all SunOS 4.1/S5R4 implementations that
provided "dlopen()" and company, for example), I think you still need to
whip up assembler code for all the "ClassEntryN" thingies.
