fyi, I ran a quick test on ia64.
The current bits just segfault:
dannf@zx6000:~$ file hello
hello: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.18, stripped
dannf@zx6000:~$ dpkg -l | grep ia32
ii ia32-libs 20110117 ia32 shared libraries for use on amd64 and ia64 systems
ii ia32-libs-core 20101207 core ia32 shared libraries for use on ia64 systems
dannf@zx6000:~$ ./hello
Segmentation fault
I found that just calling the linker segfaulted:
dannf@zx6000:~$ /lib32/ld-2.11.2.so
Segmentation fault
I tried copying over the latest ld from an i386/sid system (2.11.2-8),
and that seemed to improve things:
dannf@zx6000:~$ sudo cp lib/ld-2.11.2.so /lib32/
dannf@zx6000:~$ ./hello
./hello: error while loading shared libraries: libc.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
dannf@zx6000:~$ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/lib32 ./hello
Hello, world!
