Johan Danielsson wrote an ELF loader and has LKM's working on his alpha.

I should have checked in his work a long time ago, I had it in my tree
but removed it in order to build a release or snapshot or something. A lame
excuse, I suppose ... there was a minor problem with compile rules that
I don't think was in his work at all.

Anyway, it was revived last week when I referred the i386 ELF project to
joda's mods. It's kind of funny to see it brought up here just a few days
later. I would say we should have LKM's on alpha in the next few days...
