Has anyone written any tools that allow one to
a) Change the names of external symbols referenced by a library or exported
out of a library.
b) Add to the list of shared objects that this library needs in order to run,
so that a runtime linker will drag them in as well when a binary linked with
this shared library is run.
The reason for the above is that I'm planning on tweaking various linux-only
ELF libs so that when they're linked into a FreeBSD binary, a shim library
will be automagically dragged in as well. This will allow FreeBSD users to
happily create binaries that use 3dfx's glide library, for instance. Can you
say hardware accelerated OpenGL?
