It's possible, though from what I can tell the reason it crashes on
libraries is that it gets confused about where it's data is since it
gets loaded at 0x60000000 on the sparc (it seems to expect to load at 0).
My locally compliled ld.so-1.9.6 segfaults trying to read at address
0x16664 and it just so happens that the BSS segment starts at 0x60016664.
I shall investigate this further...
