Yeah.   It may well not have been installed at Stanford until well
after it was released from WSE - I'm pretty sure there was a field
test before the PROM was finally released, and Stanford may not have
been in on that, or there may have been changes in the PROM as a
result of the field test.

> Ted, any idea what's going on inside the PROM?

Sadly, I wasn't clever enough to walk off with a copy of the PROM
sources when I had the chance... :')

I think you're on the right track, but I don't know what specifically
you'd need to do to make the PROM do the right thing.  It may be a
section alignment problem.

It's also possible that the gprmask is "wrong" or that it's expecting
a value in for the gp register and isn't happy that elf2ecoff sets it
to zero.
