Interesting; I don't quite know how you can do that with just ldd - you
surely need to check the symbols that are used as well.
I'm wondering why you're not re-using, improving, and building on top
of Frank's:
http://frehberg.wordpress.com/binscan/
which would seem the obvious place to start here; clearly building
incrementally on that is far more valuable than creating new code here
(?).
ATB,
Michael.
