Hmm. I'm thinking more of the problem where one of the tables in libc
grew, and that that broke programs. That might not apply here. Now that I
think about it, it was a problem for programs linked against the older
version but using the newer. Basically the table grew, and the loader
would blindly copy the new, larger table into the space designated for the
older smaller table, overwriting other variables in the process.

Take care,
